    Has anyone used a camera that's integrated into the rear view mirror? Seems less likely to draw attention / attract thieves for an easy score. They seem a bit more expensive though. I just looked at this one, I like how it replaces the entire mirror instead of clamp to the original one. Any pros/cons I'm missing?

    I thought about the rear view mirror version to upgrade the cheapie unit that have, but then I would cover up (stick over type) or lose (replacement type) the mirror functions, like auto dimming, compass direction and temperature displays. Also, the fact that I move the camera between my truck & the work truck on a daily basis, the one I have is easy to transfer.
    If you don't have these functions, yes, it would be less attractive to thieves.

    It won't do you any good in the box, take it out and put in your vehicle.........

    I have a Rexing V1 dash cam. The night vision could be better, but I'm pretty happy with it, otherwise.

    Ignore the date stamp, I only got around to setting that up this weekend. This was recorded in November.

    At least you weren't listening to Lady GaGa when you made that recording.......

    Yeah, I went and bought a 4x4 beater a couple days later so I don't have to drive that car in the snow
