    Does anyone have a dedicated screen to view the front camera?
    Basically for an "always on" function.

    I'm wanting to add a front camera with the anytime rear camera but wanting to dash mount a dedicated screen for the front.

    Any pictures are appreciated.

    Thanks!!

    I’ve seen where a guy had his rear camera feed to a screen on his rear view mirror and a front camera on his dash screen. Both had the option to be ‘always on’

    Just curious why? With the germes lab you can lock the screen to front camera, back out, then relock if u wanted to.

    Have you driven around much with your front camera on? Might be different on 3rd gens but the camera on my 2nd gen is nauseating on the road because everything flies by so fast it looks fake with the wide angle lens. It’s great on the trails though!

    I guess what I’m really asking is why have a dedicated screen?

    @plurpimpin it's a personal preference for when I'm on trails.

    Fair enough, trails makes alot more sense. I also always have my front camera on in the woods but I feel like I'm in TRON when i flip it on going down the highway.
