Yes, something like that. I have a 10” one different brand that has been working great for a couple years. I used those hard wire kits to wire it to the passenger kick panel through the headliner and A pillar. The strap is pretty tight but there could still be slight vibration of the mirror on the road at times. It may bother some people but I find it Ok.

I have the same camera and it’s been working well. I need to add one for a rear view.

Viofo A139

I have the Viofo A139 3ch installed in my 21 Dodge Challenger and I am considering getting another for the Super Duty. The App is so-so but the video quality is excellent. They recently released a firmware update that allows the camera to connect to your Home Wi-fi when the car is in your garage. You can preview clips on the camera from a computer on your home network and download them to the PC from the camera. 3 Camera's allow for Front rear and interior.

Please name me one USA company that makes dash cams here in the US (or even North America).

Do you have the rear facing camera as well, if so, could you take a picture when you have a chance?

I have the rear camera installed as well, here it is in my '20 F150, It's mounted the same in the F250.
The DR900S-2CH has been good, out of site and out of mind.

awesome, thanks so much. Thinking about getting this when my truck gets in (in a year at this rate). Do you use your own SD card? See it comes with 16gb on Amazon, but would like something bigger just incase
