If you’re new to Wolfbox or just looking for the best way to install your dash cam, we’ve got you covered! Here are the three most popular methods to get your Wolfbox dash cam up and running. Each has its pros and cons, so you can choose the one that fits your needs best.

Rubber Strap Installation
This is the simplest and quickest way to set up your dash cam. Using the rubber straps included in your package, you can secure the dash cam directly onto your car’s original rearview mirror. It’s straightforward and requires no extra tools, making it perfect for beginners. However, some users find this method a bit bulky, as the dash cam sits on top of the original mirror, adding some extra thickness.

OEM Bracket Installation
For those who prefer a sleeker and more integrated look, the OEM bracket is the way to go. This option requires purchasing the Wolfbox OEM bracket separately. You’ll need to remove your car’s original rearview mirror and its supporting bracket, then replace it with the Wolfbox bracket. While it’s slightly more time-consuming to set up, the end result is worth the effort. The dash cam will look like it was part of your car’s original design!

Center Console Base Bracket Installation
This method is different from the traditional dash cam placement. Instead of attaching the dash cam to the upper windshield area, you can mount it on your car’s dashboard using a dedicated stand. This gives you more flexibility in positioning and keeps the windshield clear, but it may take some time to adjust the angle for the best recording view. If you want a distinctive setup or have a unique windshield design, this could be the option for you.

I just installed mine using the OEM style bracket (P190 if I remember correctly) and noticed right away that there's a considerable amount of vibration when driving on a fairly smooth road compared to the stock mirror. Anything I can do to alleviate that?

Outside of that, I have no complaints, but it is a bit annoying/distracting...

Thanks for your support. Please check the connections if there's any loose end. You can stuck a rubber strap between the dash cam back and the bracket plate.

All the screws are tight. It's just that the arm is much longer than the stock one and the digital mirror is considerably heavier, making it prone to vibration. As much is I don't like the look, I'm considering removing it and remounting the OEM mirror and using the straps.

But for a vehicle that's expected to be driven over much rougher terrain than a paved road, you should consider offering a more robust 'oem-style' mounting arm.

*EDIT - Actually, I did not realize that the bracket in the above post was different that the Toyota-specific one I have - it definitely looks shorter/more sturdy in comparison.

Guess I'll have to drop another $33 dollars to find out... 🤣

Wolfbox gifted me with the G900 and I provided a review with my experience (MikeD G900 review).
As mentioned there, I ended up installing the OEM mount but missed my OEM digital mirror (I have the Tow Tech package on my ORP) with its integrated Homelink capability - and now in retrospect, its just a better camera and mirror. BUT I can't record (Toyota really should change that).
So... I just ordered the G900 dash mount - which seems to be a new offering. Plan is to see if I can position the Wolfbox somewhere on the dash so I have the front bumper cam very visible when off road but still have the forward cam for recording on road events - might even move the rear cam to show a second "under vehicle" view. Might be able to have the best of both worlds - just hope I can find a spot on the dash that doesn't block my view above the hood and allows all the wiring to be sufficiently hidden. Glad for the new option.
Advice welcome.
Will show what I come up with if it works.
