    Do you or anybody else know if this can be used with a splitter to power both a radar detector and a dash cam?

    Those with a Garmin Mini 2 or 3, are you using it without a subscription? If so, I’m assuming it just records to the SD card and you do not get any alerts. Can you still use Parking mode but no alerts? Is there anyway to view the videos on the Garmin app?

    I just installed a Garmin Mini3 with the Dongar adapter to the rearview mirror plug. I am still learning my way around the settings, but I did not sign up for the "Vault" subscription for online storage. My understanding is it records to the SD card continuously and overwrites as needed. You can press the save button to save a video (protects it from being overwritten I think) to the SD card in a more permanent way. Using the Garmin Drive app you can review and download the videos. According to the manual, it has sensors for detecting an "incident" and will automatically save 15 sec before and 15sec after to SD card.

    One thing I am trying to figure out is it is very slow to access the videos and download using the Drive app on my android phone. Not sure if that is normal, or something with the SD card I chose? Any other min2/3 users have this issue? The SD card is this which meets the Garmin requirements: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09X7C7LL1?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

    Also wanted to add, not sure about parking mode. Using the power adapter connected to the rearview mirror, it is only powered when the Tacoma is on.
