Hey guys,
New member here. Last summer here in Toronto, someone keyed my vehicle lightly. I noticed it, and thankfully was able to get it down to 5% visibility (you really gotta look to find it now). Didn't report it to insurance.
But now it's going to be summer again, and I want to be protected. I don't want the dash cam as much for driving situations than for parking mode but I guess that's a bonus.
I say Fort Knox because while I can see in real time what's happening around my house, it's all recording constantly for 30 days. So I can always go back to a specific day if I want to catch something between the "motion points" (or marks of time when there was motion). I know this isn't really possible on a car, unless dead batteries is my thing.
But I say that because I feel keying can probably be done lightly, and there's a chance the dashcams won't pick it up and record it. That's what I think. But what do I know? I'm no guru like you guys. Would it?
So I was reading an article where it said:
The only problem is:
This is why I thought I'd come here, and ask for some advice on what model you guys think I should purchase, and if possible, even recommend a local Toronto installer who would do it the right way without warranty voiding lol
Thanks for reading!

And this is all exactly what I want, especially #2 and #3. I'd love to see the front, the back, and the inside (so it kind of gives the 360 view for that special case of not having the recording cuz the keying was done lightly)After trying out dozens of dash cams and other devices that are not equipped to notify you when your car or truck is vandalized we found one solution that works for all of our customers who’ve asked a number of questions:
- Do the cameras work when the car is parked and the engine is off?
- Can I see all around my car with the cameras?
- Am I able to view my cameras from my mobile phone?
- Can I view the cameras without paying a monthly fee to view my cameras remotely?
- Will the camera system notify me when someone is vandalizing my car?
- Can I view the cameras live from my mobile phone when I’m notified of a possible vandal?
- Am I able to backup video on my mobile phone and send it to someone else quickly?
- Do the cameras have night vision?
- Are the cameras safe from hackers?
The only problem is:
- I don't know if I can do what I want with the 2 cameras for the 360 view.
- I don't know the brand they recommend.
- I don't know an installer who can install a recommended brand that checks all marks above, and does it in a very inconspicuous way (hate all the show of wiring etc). Doing it right is also important so my lease dealer doesn't need to get upset.
This is why I thought I'd come here, and ask for some advice on what model you guys think I should purchase, and if possible, even recommend a local Toronto installer who would do it the right way without warranty voiding lol
Thanks for reading!
