Fitted one of these on the ID4 today, haven’t really tested it yet but easy to view footage on the phone and seems decent quality (need to view on abetter Screen to see quality) but plenty of reviews online.

Very easy to fit once you figure it out, the harness piggy backs of the rain sensor so you don’t touch the lane assist camera at all. Therain sensor plug is quite tricky to remove and needs quite a bit of force to pry out.

The housing is bigger now but still looks very OEM.

Any chance you live near the East Midlands and would be willing to fit one to my ID.4? :ROFLMAO:

I’m only up the road from you, happy to fit it for you whilst you have a coffee! 😉👍

It looks pretty neat, although my own dashcam install is a lot neater than the example ‘traditional install’ in the blurb! 😂

Mine looks rearward as well.

Which one did you get? And if that offer is serious, I just may take you up on it! I have an old (dying) dashcam now, been wanting to get a proper hardwired front+rear one for the ID.4, but I'm too nervous to install it myself...

I’ve recycled my Nextbase 222x from the ID.3, it looks through the car out of the back window, and it sees a bit more through the ID.4 rear window being a bit bigger. The add on polarising filter really helps the image quality as well.

I’ve piggyback wired it into the fuse box.

Yes, very happy to fit it for you if you get one. 👍

Great! I don't want to hijack Ado's thread (more than I already have...) so I'll send you a message and we can work something out.

Has anyone actually fitted the dual camera set up? I have 2 thinkware F770 dual cam set ups that I have hardwire fitted myself on Golf R/A1, then our 2 Polo GTI+, so each have been in 2 cars, still going strong last time they were fitted. However, I'm loving the OEM look of these on the ID3 pics and indicated ease of installation. Presumably the rear cam is wired to the front and needs that wiring poking through the gap between headlining and tops of pillars until you get to the back trim to feed the wiring through the rubber trunking that the tailgate wiring goes through and feed through the tailgate body and fix at the bottom of the tailgate window (with the boot trim off)?

Just want to publicly thank @Tooks for not only fitting my dashcam for me this morning, but also for letting my two kids run amok in his garden while he did it! 🤣

The FITCAMX is really so easy to fit you’ll have no problems, although tooks now has your sorted.

The hardest bit for this is convincing you won’t break anything by using more force.
How long does it take to deliver? I notice the pricing is in dollars, but I like the way their camera fits in there.
