Review: A must have for nextbase forward facing cameras - The camera I purchased and wanted was a corded camera that plugs into the side of the Nextbase 522 or 422gw dash-cam. With roughly 22 feet of cord, this camera will easily meet your requirements for installing on any foreign or domestic passenger vehicle. As one of the reviewers said "test the cord and camera first to confirm functionality prior to running the wire and camera in your vehicle." I used the little cord tool device that came with my Nextbase 522gw dash-cam to hide the wire in between the ceiling of my car and the pillars, and opted it to trail the wire down along with the cord that connects my OEM mirror on the front windshield. The camera itself has a base that has 3M foam tape that appears flimsy, but has held well now for over two months to the rear window of my car. I recommend the following: Do a dry run - try leaving the cord out and using the camera while driving prior to doing the final install (In case you don't like it) Plan the route of your cord, this helps with detours and having to take the wire down just to restart again. If you have a lot of excess wire left over, coil it in several paces rather than at the end or beginning - otherwise the wire bunches up, pops out, or pushes against what ever you place it behind, I had roughly 18 inches excess, so I coiled 6 inches at the end, middle and beginning, this way if I wanted to move or have to get around it later, I didn't have to deal with a big mess/re-running the whole cord. Do test runs and compare your video - make sure your camera is pointed to optimally catch the whole rear view, at first I had almost all pointing to the passenger side, then not enough on the passenger side. A few things I found out after setting it up: There's a picture in picture on the dash-cam screen when you plug this camera in, it pretty makes it impossible to look at the screen when driving (distracting). I found hiding the dash cam behind my rear view mirror helps and turning on the screen saver. Now you'll have up to four video files of the same time - depending on your settings there will be two videos one of the forward facing cam and one of the rear view, not the actual picture in picture as stated above. The camera captures video well even with window tenting, this changes at night depending on the ambient light/street lights, etc. It works well for what I want, I haven't had to use it as far as a car accident, but it brings me piece of mind. The manual states that the sd card should be formatted routinely (dash cam internal feature) I hope this helps
Review: Great quality. Easy to mount. - I bought the dash cam, the rear window cam and the hard wire kit. The installation was easy to do, neat out of the way and mostly well hidden except for the wires at the tops of the windshield and rear window. I ordered some small 3M cable clamps to stick at the top of the windscreens to take care of that. There was no way for me to shove the wires under the window trims without breaking something. I chose to use unswitched power for the setup. Power is always available even when parked. If someone were to bump the car or worse if someone tries to break in, the cams G sensor gets triggered, the cam turns on and records the event. The rear window camera is very useful for backing up. The field of view to the rear is wide enough to see most things on your blind spots but as expected not all. Still this is many times better than just the mirrors. I like the rear view feature so much that I leave it on all the time. It's great for monitoring cars in your blind spots in the city and the highways. I have only one small gripe. The daytime view of the display is a little too dim for my old eyes. That's probably because I enabled the light sensor which will automatically adjust the brightness of the screen to the ambient light which is great for night driving. I wish there was a way to customize it. So that's it folks. Buy it!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How hard is cable managment for these? I dont want wires running all over my new truck like i was in high School.**
A: I was able to route the cable by tucking the wires underneath the plastic covers. It would depend on your car. Did not require a professional installation

**Q: Does this rear-view camera see well through a rear-tinted window?**
A: Yes, it is recording well enough through tinted glass

**Q: Is it weather proof? Can it mount on the outside of a jeep wrangler?**
A: I'm not sure if the back camera is waterproof but looking at the component I would have to say no it wouldn't survive a driving rain or being submerged. 
Also since we're discussing Nexbase I would add that the front camera can't survive a week of hot days. Just retired mine to a landfill after it had in countered such conditions. Great camera until the Midwest heat wave.

**Q: If it’s hard wired to the car does it shutoff when the car does ? I have a 12 v in the back I was considering wiring it to ?**
A: IF... you "hardwire" it to a circuit that turns on when the ignition is in the "on" position and "off" when the ignition is turned off, then yes.  DO NOT hardwire it to an "always-on" circuit like a clock or security circuit.  Doing so may drain or weaken your car's battery over time.  Then you'll have the expense of replacing your battery.  Additionally, some circuits are monitored by your car's computers.  If they detect additional current draw, where there should NOT BE any additional current draw, you'll likely get a dashboard warning notification that you won't be able to reset.  In which case you'll end up going to a repair shop to have it resolved... costing you additional money.  My best advice is to have it professionally installed.   Save yourself time, money, and grief.  Today's newer cars are way more sophisticated than most older models ever were.  The days of "shade-tree" mechanics are fast fading away.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to set-up and great video clarity.
*by R***J on January 16, 2025*

I have had the front view camera for a few years and recently purchased the rear view camera for added security. The camera was surprisingly simple to install and set-up. The rear view camera video shows on the same screen as the front view camera. Although the picture is small, it still is viewable while driving and on the app.
