That's great. Congrats. You'll love it. It's a great dashcam. Do you happen to have any photos of your install to share?

AMG C43 3LV6

Dashcam is great and I am so happy to get it. I have to recommend it to C class owners as they install and setup that the shop did was just perfect.

The Dashcam is sleek and elegant and to be honest I dont even notice it at all. The Blackvue is a small discrete cylinder which blends well with the C class interior. By blending in I mean its there but you dont notice its presence. Its present on the front passenger side next to the windscreen radar. Passengers in my car have never really noticed it to ask about it, thats how much it blends in. Mind you this is a hardwired install so hence it has a very small concise discrete presence.

My neighbor has literally a camera as his dashcam and it is obvious noticeable and looks out of place.

If you want any more details please ask, happy to help.

I am in the market for dashcams for my C63s and C43 , I looked at the BlackVue, DR900S , since most of the post below are a bit outdated, any one have any updates or recommendations ??

Thanks in advance.

I'd still go with the BlackVue DR900S-2CH. It now has been updated with HDR Night Vision which improves images in both day and night. It's an incremental update, but this dashcam has been thoroughly dependable for me in recording during driving and parking mode.

If I am using the cloud service, does it matter which GB version ??

Also, what external power method do most use ?? they have a Power Magic Pro direct wire, with multiple fuse options.
(guess I am looking for someone who has had these installed and nows the best direct power route to go)

Thanks in advance

FLC63s

Still liking our two Vantrue N2 Pro Uber Dual Dash Cams.

I ended up using power magic pro and hardwiring it to the fuse box, I don’t remember the voltage cutoff I set it to though.

I'm using the Power Magic Ultra in one vehicle and the Power Magic EZ for the other.

This is how I have my DR900S-2ch set up in my ML350. It was pretty easy since the main battery is located under the right rear passenger seat.

I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the DR900S-2ch 4K , so will have it installed this coming week and let everyone know how it goes..

Actually I have a pretty interesting week coming up with my car... :
