Looks Great! Any more pictures of the rear camera in terms of wires hidden etc?

Thanks!

@TaycanTurboS-yellow what are your thoughts about this camera now that you've had it for a couple of weeks? Any issues with it running down the 12v battery? Are you still satisfied with the quality of the video and the resolution?

It is the most "clean" installation of a dash cam for a Taycan I've seen yet, especially with a rear camera, and I'm leaning towards purchasing one and finding someone here in Austin to install it for me.

Hello, Yes i'm happy with the camera's. No problems with battery, because the camera's stop recording after a minute when the car is turned off. The app is working great. You have to know that the recorded videos can be downloaded on your telephone when you are sitting in the car. communication works with wifi-signal between the camera-unit and your telephone. So with this system you can easy download the video's without taking out the SD-card. If you also want to see the camera-video's and pictures when you are on a distance of your car, then you also need a 4G-module in combination with videodata in the cloud. I think this will use more energy and you will need an abonnement (disadvantage). The company carcam.nl can also deliver this 4G-module. They told me that it is also possible to choose for this extra option in the future.

I have moved from using the CarCam to the similar FitCamX because:

a] I prefer the wiring harness of the FitCamx
b] I have no need for a rear camera

Therefore, I have a "spare" CarCam for the Taycan which consists of:

a] Front Camera
b] Rear Camera
c] Wiring harness from fuze box to front camera
d] Wiring harness between front and read cameras.
e] All original packaging and instructions.
f] 32 GB card that came with the camera.

It was installed in my car for a few days before I removed it and replaced with the other camera.

I'm happy to post this to any forum member if they were willing to paypal me the cost of postage. I'm located in Ireland, so there would be zero customs issues sending within the union. Posting outside to US, UK, etc, comes with a potential customs charge on import to your country though that will depend on local rules, package opening regulations, etc.

First to DM me willingness to PayPal me the delivery costs and lets me know their country/address so I can figure out the cost – gets it.

I tried to send a DM but the site won't allow me, likely due to some sort of permissions.

Have you had any takers for your "spare" CarCam yet? Any idea what it would cost to ship it to Texas in the USA?

I think I've fixed DM permissions. Using regular postal service as opposed to UPS, etc I got these prices:

Installed mine last week. Image quality surprised me, because it's actually pretty good. You need to take some time to install it the correct way. Don't route your cables along the roof where the airbags are, but go over the floor then up again at the c-pillar again. The cable is long enough.

It works like you expect from a dashcam, but the only strange thing is that you get advertisements in the timacam app.

What I didn't get working for now is the parking collision function. I'll have to check what is wrong here. @TaycanTurboS-yellow, is this working in your car?

Does the rear camera hide behind the roofline of the rear window in your car as well? That is very appealing to not have it visible in the rearview mirror in rear window.

Is Timacam the only app that will work with this cam? Having advertisements in the dash cam app is enough to steer me to other options I'm afraid.

Quick update: This camera is now gone to someone in the UK.

I tried several positions and ended up with using the tape to attach it to the bottom of the third brake light. You'll see a small piece of wiring, but although I like it when nothing is visible I wasn't planning on cutting into the oem Porsche pieces.

I'm not sure if other app's are available or even compatible with these cameras.

The advertisements are not really that annoying. There is one popup and you can clear it almost instant. Also you don't use the app that often, probably a few times a year if needed. The way the front camera is integrated in the mirror base is for me more important, because I look at it every day. The so called Audi/Porsche oem cam is much more present with its wiring and ugly glueing pad for the windscreen.
