    I have it in the box, but it's been too damn cold here to install - all I see are good reviews here and on YouTube

    I have the rear camera also - I imagine routing the wires takes longer than to install the front alone

    I love mine. Don’t even remember it’s there 99% of the time.
    Install took all of 5 minutes.

    that's why I like it - it looks like standard equipment and not even noticeable as a cam

    A few Meso this and that.
    I have the front and rear FitCamX and I like it, at first I had an issue with a minor spot on the front camera that you can see in recorded videos but FitCam took care of it by replacing the camera. I been using it now for a few months with no issues and I forget its there.

    I only did the front kit. So your install will add more time

    I did it today - the front was maybe 10 minutes, with the bulk of the time made up with sorting out how to tuck the wires away so the cover slips on.

    The rear was maybe 45 minutes of routing the wire under the trim with the tool they supply, which helps.

    I have the 4K front, bought it that way.

    Can I add a rear cam to it?

    No it needs a pair of wires from the front instead of the one you have. You can always ask the vendor.

    Just did. They said the dual cam models have different chips and boards, so I can't add a rear cam to it.
