You just moved from CA to NV and you're helping a friend paint? I would think you would have enough of your own work to do. :eek:

You must be a 'type A' personality. :D

(And I say that as a compliment.)

Thanks for the offer, but didn't remember it until I knew the Street Guardian was on it's way - maybe for the next 2 units :).

Many thanks to Pier28 for doing the quick video. Now that I have seen what is involved I think I can manage to do the adjustment without destroying the GPS:)

the trick is just to lever under the edge of the gps and slowly let the tape pull away, don't force it, and it will come away cleanly and you can flip it over
 
Thanks for the additional tips Jokiin - hopefully will be working on it soon enough.
 
Jon forgot to mention the 4 screws is self tapping screws, so when you put them back in there is no need to tighten them too much and risk stripping, just make them tight enuff so there is no rattling in the GPS housing.
There is little mechanical forces acting on the GPS antenna/housing so no need to risk anything

I have stripped a fjews self tapping screws myself over time, comming from the industry i am not used to these small screws and screws tapping into plastic :oops:

Need to retry that light on/off test with a car model that have the licenceplate down really low. ( i think )

Looking at the other things beside the car in pic, it seem like the camera really change some things when it dont have all the light from the headlights to account for.
 
Thanks for the samples alexsoll. The footage looks great. I ordered this camera last week and and can't wait to receive it!

Technically yes but if its a genuine mistake we'd cover it, there's some people that should never be let near tools of course, in Australia we're predominantly selling through retail channels where they will also install so its mostly the installers that are going to do this so less chance of mishaps

Hmm if I plan to buy this cam, I am going to install it myself in my car, not preparing to pay extra for the installation. If the retailer refuses to cover me in case of an example one of the wires came off the soldering when I flip that GPS board around, I will be mightily upset.
 
If you're comfortable with installing it yourself I'm sure you'd have no problem rotating the GPS, honestly if we thought it was going to cause problems we wouldn't show you that it was even possible or how its done

Yep, to my eye it looks like the most difficult part is getting the double sided tape off.

Yeah, I know from viewing Pier28's video it is an easy task. I was just wondering in case one of the wires is already loose, and when I flip the GPS board around and the wire just disconnect from its soldering, the retailer may refuse my warranty because I have opened up the GPS module case, which officially voided the warranty.

Installing dashcam in my car is easy. I don't hardwire it, just stick the wire with adhesive cable clips around the windscreen. I did it initially with my Mini 0801 and when I sold that car, because I didn't hardwire it, it was easy for me to remove the adhesive cable clips, wires and dashcam, and transferred to my new current car.
 
Cheers.
