Hello all. I just came from a Bolt EV with a camera built into the full length of the rear-view mirror and it was the SAFEST feature I even owned. The width of whats viewable full time on the camera "monitor" is much wider than what you get from even side view mirrors hence much SAFER to use looking up than looking away.
I would like to put on in my '11 EX but traditionally ppl are using rubber bands to attach over their mirror version and I think its tacky plus begging to be stolen.
The after markets also have an front camera and they record. I'm really doing it for the rear view (and then going to add something for close-2-the-road level front/rear for parking/distance (including audio sensors ..)but that will have to be linked to a radio upgrade...which I am also researching..).
Can anyone assist me in idea's how to permanently mount these into the E?
Some choices I'm looking at and there are a few like that around.
Choice 1
Choice 2
Choice 3 comes with some factory mount kit with a few adapters but the sellers says none for Honda....
I found something like this that could be used for the mod possibly?..(not an exact fit..)
How the rear view mirror is mounted (ex 1 , ex 2 )in the E would make the wires almost hidden and very clean from prying eyes...
I would consider welding the damn thing together and use special screws that no one could take off w.out a special tool.. idk just thoughts.
Please help !! I will take and provide all pics once I have a solution. Remember all the newer tech cars have these installed ex:
some of the after markets up to 170 degree view! "The 170° wide angle cameras can capture footage clearly at bright day and night "
