Looking to get a dashcam installed. I have an old Garmin that I used on my Tacoma, but it seems I can't use it because of the angle of the windshield.

What do you use on yours? If you have links and pictures, that would be awesome!!!

Thanks

Since I didn't pay for it, the factory one has actually been pretty good. I like it tracks parking incidents, and the action mode off-roading was a nice touch as well. Granted any aftermarket ones can do the same if you wire them right. So, maybe this comment didn't really help. Like the one @Nodak is using, I've heard great things about Viofo.

did the factory dashcam come with the vehicle ??? if it did, you paid for it. its a $499 line item on the window sticker.

if someone gave it to you free, good for you. i personally wouldnt pay $500 for the oem dashcam. for $200 less i can get a dashcam that does more.

I got the OEM dash cam. I wish toyota give us a software upgrade enabling all the camera built in to the car to use it as a dash cam, just like the new RAV4

@Nodak Was a line item for sure, but I paid $4600 under MSRP, so I guess it was technically "free". That covered all my adds and destination.

I have the FitCam and it works great. Really happy with it.

i am suspecting it wont happen. the new RAV4 has TSS 4.0, so its going to be a hardware limitation, not just software.

since the 4R has TSS 3.0 it will be missing the storage capability of TSS 4.0 to store the video feeds of the camera's.

I went with the Fit Cam X due to its better than OEM integration in the front. I did not want the rear camera and it was less than half the cost of the OEM. Amazon link
