To use as a simple dash cam, the only cable you’ll need to run is the one from the rear camera to the mirror, but to operate as a back-up camera it also needs to be wired to the reversing light.
Assuming you supply the maximum 64GB SD card, that’ll record up to 72 hours, automatically recorded on a loop overwriting the older footage, and adding GPS geodata as it goes.

1080P video might not be the highest resolution available, but the Sony sensors capture good footage which is more than adequate for insurance evaluation.

It might be a little expensive if all you really want is a backup camera to help you park, but if you're also looking for a dash cam, and want the protection that comes with recording everything that happens to you when on the road, the Auto-Vox Pro 5 is worth every dollar.The Auto-Vox V5 is already a great reversing & dash cam, but this ‘Pro’ option is designed to be fitted directly to a car’s fuse box so it really blends into the driving experience. In occupying the spot where your rearview mirror would normally be, the V5 Pro doesn't clutter your car, while Auto-Vox has thought carefully about the various challenges that installation often poses, and provided various options to make this as easy as possible too. The 150 degree angle on the rearview camera makes a mockery of blind spots, while the night vision, sensors and blue light resistant glass means images will always be 100% clear. It's the backup camera that can do it all, while looking great at the same time. Should you buy the Auto-Vox V5 Pro?Īnyone looking for a top-of-the-range backup camera that doubles up as a dash cam will not be disappointed with the Auto-Vox V5 Pro. Footage that's been recorded can be easily played back as well, though you'll need to buy a separate SD card to store what is filmed.
What you also have is a glare-resistant touchscreen display from which you can control everything, including switch between displays, brightness of the display, and the position of parking lines.

Importantly, the 9.35-inch full screen will give you a field of vision roughly four times greater than with a traditional rearview mirror, and there's no delay in the images that are relayed. With the V5 Pro taking up residence where your rearview mirror is normally found, the first thing to enjoy with the V5 Pro is the lack of clutter on the dashboard or windshield that it creates. (Image credit: Amazon) Auto-Vox V5 Pro review: Monitor Both the rear and front cameras record video in 1080p, making for excellent images quality, and there's a night vision mode for when light isn't so good. As soon as you shift into reverse, the rearview images automatically show with guidelines as well. With a view angle from the rear camera of 150 degrees, the V5 Pro shows a lot more than most backup cameras and eliminates almost all blind spots to make make parking that much easier. As power comes from the fuse box, the V5 Pro can work without the engine being switched on. With the front facing attached to the rearview mirror, all that's left to do is to plug it in. If these don't fit, Auto-Vox will provide a custom adapter free of charge.
Replacing the rearview mirror is a cinch, thanks to the inclusion of four different adapters, which make use of the mounting base that is already in place. However, if you can, it's definitely worth connecting the second wire to the reverse light, so that you can enjoy the full functionality of the V5 Pro, including an automatic switch in the display when you find reverse. There's two ways to wire up your V5 Pro as well, meaning you only have to tackle one wire if you're happy simply joining the rear and front cameras. If running a wire along your car is not for you, and you don't mind a slight compromise on video quality, then you have the option to fix the camera inside your rear window with special tape too.

Installing the rearview camera is more straightforward than with most backup cameras, with built-in brackets exactly the right size to be attached using existing license plate screws.
