How to find a precise position to strengthen the GPS signal?
1. Stick the GPS antenna on the dashboard and keep it face up to receive a stronger signal.

2. The dash cam comes with 2pcs Low-Profile hardwire kit in the package, there is no need to purchase it separately. If the equipped hardwire kit not fit your fuse box, please message us, we will send you the suitable one.
3. For parking mode, you should use the hardwire kit to connect the dash cam to the constant power for working.

It's 100% awesome. I'm a 40 year old male fangirling over how cool and high quality it really is. i love everything about it.. literally its so cool in every aspect. everything works as its supposed to. Parking is way easier in my Element where as before I either had to adjust my side view mirrors so I could see the ground near the tire or i had to adjust it so i could see distance while driving. The V5 Pro is fast and responsive. The camera bump sensors gives it an added level of security. Its intuitive and not a buggy mess. install was only sort of difficult and the only hard part was removing interior panels to run the wires and we all know that always sucks.. you can use the mirror to move the view up or down from inside the car with just a swipe, adjust the parking lines etc. and more... there are plenty of reviews that teach how to use it but the learning curve is low which is a huge plus. The software you install on a computer or laptop seems responsive, works as intended and isnt confusing to learn at all.
for the sake of being critical if i must complain about something:
the camera though..... I don't know if its just me but its actually kind of too good... like... the recorded videos are high quality, the viewing software is pretty good and you can see literally everything on your computer at 1080p 30fps?... but on the mirror, driving at night is way easier. no more blinding ultra whites, no complaints about the way it works but its like the viewing angle you get from the camera is so big that it gives the impression that objects in the rear view mirror are way further than they appear, I'm probably not meant to use the rear camera while driving but hear me out: a car that looks 2 car lengths behind me in my side view looks 1/4 to 1/2 mile behind me in my rear view, its really hard to judge long range distance where as short range distance is perfect, and cars look tiny at that kind of far range.... like ants and that could just be my setup for all i know.... if I could just zoom in to where i like it and then when I shift in reverse it goes back to how it is now it would be perfect. now that I've had a few weeks to use it i have been full time using it as a screen that's not pointed as a rear view because, daytime reflections bugs your eyes out when you try to see through the video image and distinguish the difference between rear view reflection and camera video while driving. You can always turn on driving mode and use it just as a rear view mirror but i kind of like it as a screen so I've been trying to use it just as a screen... moving on; i wanted the camera mounted as close to the ground as possible so I could set the distances on the parking lines as close to accurate as possible but the software allows me to swipe up or down to adjust it on the fly which I didn't know at the time of installing. so far I have the adjustable parking line accuracy down to appx 2 inches at the red, yellow, and green, markers so I don't foresee parking will ever be a problem again in the E which used to be a big concern for me with how tall it is and how my side views have this huge vertical blind spot because they aren't tall enough...(i drove small cars since i was 16 and this is the biggest vehicle i have ever owned so maybe its something you get used to with time but for me I didn't like that I went from not curbing my tires/rims ever since my first car to curbing my Falken trail tires 2 times in the first week of owning this beast which is a big no for me and why I opted to get a reversing camera)
About the customer service:
i went to the Autovox page and i emailed customer service just curiously asking if the mirror had a zoom function and explained my distance issue/concern and this wonderful woman from Customer Service named Vicky went way above and beyond exceeding what was expected of her. I just asked if the firmware had that capability and if not could they possibly add it to suggestion box for firmware development in the future and after confirming that i purchased this mirror by looking at my invoice from Amazon from the AutoVox seller. Over the course of of the next 4 emails she proved she was polite and respectable, respectful, professional, courteous and thoughtful and just overall amazing at her job. To elaborate on the big stuff: 1) She told me she forwarded my suggestion to their design/manufacturing team and if that software update ever becomes available she'll send me an email about it personally. 2) extended my warranty from 12 to 18 months. I didn't ask for that i just asked a question but that extra piece of mind... *kisses fingers like an Italian* mwuahh I would plant kiss on her cheek for it if i could<3 lol how awesome is that? i mean I'm already happy with the product and that just made me happier Thank You Vicky 3) Maybe i shouldn't say this I don't want to get her in trouble but she did offer for me to buy a second camera/mirror gave me 2 product choices and offered to refund the money into my account once the purchase successfully went through and the product shipped. I declined because I didn't want to take advantage but the offer was there and that made all the difference and honestly I'm already happy so, that kind of excessive customer service earned a customer for life. I wont hesitate to go with an Autovox next time and neither should any of you out there on the internet 4) (this is the big one for me because I recently had a really unpleasant customer service issue for my android stereo, where it took 2 weeks to resolve my issue. I had to fight tooth and nail just for a firmware update from that company and wait 4 days in between each email and then when I got it, it wouldn't even install...) The wait time per return email from Vicky was only about 1/4 to 1/2 day. I believe that this woman deserves a raise and a promotion because she is literally the best at what she does and she's definitely an asset to her company, and in my opinion, one of the most crucial parts of what makes this company a no brainer when looking for reverse cameras.
Final Thoughts
If you're looking to get a good reversing camera that doesn't lag, does its job, doesn't have bugs in the software and have the piece of mind that its a high quality unit with the best possible customer service if something goes wrong. pull the trigger on this V5 pro you wont be disappointed.
Overall, definitely a 5 STAR system. Simple and very easy to install. Wired connection was a must have for me, less likely to have interference or video loss with a solid wired hookup. Plus, less wireless signals interfering with phone calls, radio signals, and less signals beaming around my head or those I love. Parking mode recording is a bonus, if you're worried about a parallel parking tap from someone, it's nice to have some evidence they did it. Touchscreen is responsive, able to snap photos with just a couple taps. Can lock files on the fly with a couple taps. Can turn the screen on or off again with a couple taps. All around very easy to use while driving, which is another reason I chose the V5Pro from Auto-Vox. The screen has adaptive brightness, which is very nice as I prefer a much dimmer interior to maximize nighttime awareness of what's going on around me so adjusting the screen is one less thing to worry about. The auto switch to a different view when reversing is a nice touch, especially when parking, or attaching something to the hitch. You can even add the reverse lines if you like. Or you can simply turn this feature off and use your finger to adjust the view if need be, also a very nice touch. Overall the design is very well thought out. For those that mention the camera on the front of the mirror being on the right side, you are not wrong for pointing this out. But as you may know much of the World drives on the other side of the road with the steering wheel mounted on the right side. Sure, Auto-Vox could have created a model for left sided steering wheels but I'm sure that would have cost a great deal more, and may have increased the price of an already well done system. Also, if you use the live stream video as your all the time rearview like I usually do, just center the mirror since you don't need the angled view and boom better front angled camera. This also remedies the headlights and reflection from vehicles behind you. I actually remounted my mirror all the way up to the top of my windshield (just heat up the button, and reattach it higher). There is no glare from anything and I have a much better view through the windshield. Also, the rearview mirror is more shaded and reduces the chance of the sun prematurely retiring this system from damage.
The cameras are pretty good, granted I wish they were more polarized to reduce the glare from the dashboard on the windshield, but this is minor. Would be great if they had polarized lens caps like some other manufacturers have. The color and detail are pretty nice. A bit washed out in bright days, but hey this isn't a home video camera. It's there to document nonstop incase something happens and you need proof. Which it does very well, along with plenty of other features. Actually saved me from the hassle of fighting a speeding ticket... Funny story...
Got pulled over instead of the person that was really speeding next to me, whom quickly slowed down when they saw the officer. When the officer pulled me over and proceeded in an attempt to ticket me for speeding, I smiled and said "You've got the wrong guy!" He laughed and said that's not the first time he's heard that. I then explained the car he tagged with his radar was the one next to me. He again laughed and said "Also heard that one before" . So I smiled and said, "Well, you might not have heard this one before, you mind taking a look at my rearview for a minute? Have a short video I'd like you to watch. Unless of course you'd like to see me in court." I then proceeded to show him the reverse camera video, showing the other car way off in the distance behind me closing in extremely fast and then braking dramatically and matching my speed, at which point I then got pulled over instead of him. He again laughed and said "You're right, I've never heard that one before. Sorry for taking up any of your time." At which point I smiled and drove away without a ticket. Felt pretty damn good too. Instantly paid for itself. (Also, with audio recording on the mirror you will have any conversation with an officer recorded. You can turn this feature off and on with a couple taps, as I usually have it off.)
If you have any issues as any tech is sure to have with daily use and the torcher of being in a hot car, Auto-Vox is extremely quick to respond. They will undoubtedly resolve any issue and provide the best way to remedy your given situation. I reached out and received prompt assistance. Was sent new firmware and directions on how to update the system. This was very nice to experience a company, a brand, standing behind their products. Auto-Vox had my business, and now they have my confidence and respect... And of course future business. I can say I also get plenty of compliments on the V5Pro all the time, how it so clean, no wires everywhere, factory finish at every point. I'm always quick to show off the features and explain why it's such a great system. I know quite a few people that have purchased this system with my strong recommendation. Cause it really is a very well designed, well made, and well backed system. Definitely Auto-Vox V5Pro for the win.
For the future, I do hope Auto-Vox V5Pro design continues to evolve. Would really like to see more feature settings, the ability to dim the screen at different levels depending on the drivers taste, options to also turn off the screen with a double tap instead of a long press (sometimes the long press takes a few tries, could be due to the temperature in the vehicle at he time), some more cameras choices (maybe get rid of the proprietary connectors so extension cables can be added for better wire routing), polarized lens caps would be nice, the option to add more cameras (like left and right outside mirror mounted cameras, this is where most factory systems cameras shine). With the option to set it to automatically switch to one when the turn signal is on. This would be such a nice feature. Not to mention, it would add 360 degree recording. As it stands the only fatal flaw in a two camera dashcam system is the blind spot of the left and right side of the vehicle. Have been considering adding another camera system just for this reason. But alas, this is an afterthought from having this system for well over a year. But Auto-Vox if you're reading this, don't forget to add the ability to view all 4 camera views at the same time on the mirror! Without the auto switch back to only the rearview. In traffic or extreme weather this can aid dramatically in navigating to safety (speaking from experience).
Thank you Auto-Vox and to all those who had a hand in it from creation, design, software, hardware, technical support, and customer service for providing an exceptional product.
Keep up the good work!

Overall, definitely a 5 STAR system. Simple and very easy to install. Wired connection was a must have for me, less likely to have interference or video loss with a solid wired hookup. Plus, less wireless signals interfering with phone calls, radio signals, and less signals beaming around my head or those I love. Parking mode recording is a bonus, if you're worried about a parallel parking tap from someone, it's nice to have some evidence they did it. Touchscreen is responsive, able to snap photos with just a couple taps. Can lock files on the fly with a couple taps. Can turn the screen on or off again with a couple taps. All around very easy to use while driving, which is another reason I chose the V5Pro from Auto-Vox. The screen has adaptive brightness, which is very nice as I prefer a much dimmer interior to maximize nighttime awareness of what's going on around me so adjusting the screen is one less thing to worry about. The auto switch to a different view when reversing is a nice touch, especially when parking, or attaching something to the hitch. You can even add the reverse lines if you like. Or you can simply turn this feature off and use your finger to adjust the view if need be, also a very nice touch. Overall the design is very well thought out. For those that mention the camera on the front of the mirror being on the right side, you are not wrong for pointing this out. But as you may know much of the World drives on the other side of the road with the steering wheel mounted on the right side. Sure, Auto-Vox could have created a model for left sided steering wheels but I'm sure that would have cost a great deal more, and may have increased the price of an already well done system. Also, if you use the live stream video as your all the time rearview like I usually do, just center the mirror since you don't need the angled view and boom better front angled camera. This also remedies the headlights and reflection from vehicles behind you. I actually remounted my mirror all the way up to the top of my windshield (just heat up the button, and reattach it higher). There is no glare from anything and I have a much better view through the windshield. Also, the rearview mirror is more shaded and reduces the chance of the sun prematurely retiring this system from damage.
The cameras are pretty good, granted I wish they were more polarized to reduce the glare from the dashboard on the windshield, but this is minor. Would be great if they had polarized lens caps like some other manufacturers have. The color and detail are pretty nice. A bit washed out in bright days, but hey this isn't a home video camera. It's there to document nonstop incase something happens and you need proof. Which it does very well, along with plenty of other features. Actually saved me from the hassle of fighting a speeding ticket... Funny story...
Got pulled over instead of the person that was really speeding next to me, whom quickly slowed down when they saw the officer. When the officer pulled me over and proceeded in an attempt to ticket me for speeding, I smiled and said "You've got the wrong guy!" He laughed and said that's not the first time he's heard that. I then explained the car he tagged with his radar was the one next to me. He again laughed and said "Also heard that one before" . So I smiled and said, "Well, you might not have heard this one before, you mind taking a look at my rearview for a minute? Have a short video I'd like you to watch. Unless of course you'd like to see me in court." I then proceeded to show him the reverse camera video, showing the other car way off in the distance behind me closing in extremely fast and then braking dramatically and matching my speed, at which point I then got pulled over instead of him. He again laughed and said "You're right, I've never heard that one before. Sorry for taking up any of your time." At which point I smiled and drove away without a ticket. Felt pretty damn good too. Instantly paid for itself. (Also, with audio recording on the mirror you will have any conversation with an officer recorded. You can turn this feature off and on with a couple taps, as I usually have it off.)
If you have any issues as any tech is sure to have with daily use and the torcher of being in a hot car, Auto-Vox is extremely quick to respond. They will undoubtedly resolve any issue and provide the best way to remedy your given situation. I reached out and received prompt assistance. Was sent new firmware and directions on how to update the system. This was very nice to experience a company, a brand, standing behind their products. Auto-Vox had my business, and now they have my confidence and respect... And of course future business. I can say I also get plenty of compliments on the V5Pro all the time, how it so clean, no wires everywhere, factory finish at every point. I'm always quick to show off the features and explain why it's such a great system. I know quite a few people that have purchased this system with my strong recommendation. Cause it really is a very well designed, well made, and well backed system. Definitely Auto-Vox V5Pro for the win.
For the future, I do hope Auto-Vox V5Pro design continues to evolve. Would really like to see more feature settings, the ability to dim the screen at different levels depending on the drivers taste, options to also turn off the screen with a double tap instead of a long press (sometimes the long press takes a few tries, could be due to the temperature in the vehicle at he time), some more cameras choices (maybe get rid of the proprietary connectors so extension cables can be added for better wire routing), polarized lens caps would be nice, the option to add more cameras (like left and right outside mirror mounted cameras, this is where most factory systems cameras shine). With the option to set it to automatically switch to one when the turn signal is on. This would be such a nice feature. Not to mention, it would add 360 degree recording. As it stands the only fatal flaw in a two camera dashcam system is the blind spot of the left and right side of the vehicle. Have been considering adding another camera system just for this reason. But alas, this is an afterthought from having this system for well over a year. But Auto-Vox if you're reading this, don't forget to add the ability to view all 4 camera views at the same time on the mirror! Without the auto switch back to only the rearview.

Very clean install, one simple wire no clutter and looks very high end. I recommend this unit. Records from the front and rear, easy to use and peice of mind having recorded video of front and rear while driving. Any noise will trigger to unit to record while the vehicle is parked pending on the sensitivity level.

Up date: As I stated in my first review I was having a problem with the time zone setting it had. Also a couple of glitches. Like no bracket to mount the rear camera inside my car.. I contacted the seller and they were very nice and easy to work with. They helped me to deal with the problems I was having in an easy step by step format. And shipped me the bracket I needed for the rear camera. Also during the going back and forth trying to figure out the time zone issue. We determined the problem could not be resolved. The seller decided just to replace the unit. Then sent to me a new unit at no cost to me. There customer service is great and a thank you to Kaya at customer services. I will update if needed in the future.
The only reasons I didn’t give it 5 stars are that the dash cam is on the passenger side for North American vehicles, but his isn’t a show stopper. And the wide angle lens in the rear camera is great for eliminating blind spots but that causes vehicles in the mirror to be quite small to view. But for more comfort and safety knowing what is behind me it is great. Took a few hours to route the cable from the front dash all the way to the back of the RV, but worth it in my view. Customer service folks, including Kaya, were very helpful and responsive.
Update: In June the rear camera was knocked off accidentally and Auto Vox replaced it under warranty, which was very much appreciated. I was lost for a few days until I could get the new camera installed, and now I’m back happy again. Thanks to Kaya for her wonderful customer service.
