I thought I’d start a new thread and not water down the other thread where I started this issue
I spend half an hour and made my small wedge shape slither to get the rear facing DVR lens facing up and not on to the rear boot,
I went and did a dry run to see with the wedge how much play I had with the cable, what did I discover, to be able to use the rear facing DVR the camera has to be half way down my rear screen
when with a little common sense, and the USB had been placed to one side or the other, the DVR could be placed more or less anywhere on the rear screen
I did think about having the DVR upside down but having the cable dangling down is so amateurish and impedes my limited view out of the rear screen
the only way I can now see of using this rear DVR is if I make a large (and a higher risk of vibration) L bracket to use this rear DVR in this manor
having one part of the L bracket stuck to the screen and the other part way above the DVR and very shaky
I hear Viofo make a cable having a right angle at both ends as an extra, well considering what I have to go through to fit the cable from the front screen to the rear screen I’ll sooner use two separate DVR’s than go through that again
if they have to place the USB at the top of the rear DVR why didn’t they throw in a ten pin right angle USB (as an extra if need be?) I have been searching google for a ten pin right angle mini USB with zero luck, anyone know if these are available and from who? failing this then it looks like I’m in the market for another DVR
