Thank you for the video. This camera is kind of useless if you really want the parking mode, that was my main concern but if you have to wire it like traditional ones it doesn’t make sense.
Due to the fact that the ADAS camera was not unmounted it does not require a calibration. The camera has not moved but has simply been unplugged, this should be done while the vehicle is completely off. The camera will not know it was disconnected, so it will be similar to when you turn your vehicle off and the camera loses power, when you turn it back on it’ll be powered on and should be good to go as long as it was not unmounted.
thanks for this great video. I can't get my existing base cover to slide down to get it off. How hard do you have to push to get it to slide down so you can get it off? I don't want to break my mirror off too. :)
I bought this and installed it a couple days ago and one observation is that it gets noticeably hot. Especially the SD card slot. Almost too hot to touch for more than 10 seconds. Is yours like this?
I'm listening to this on headphones and when you get to the playback of the cam at the end the audio is only on my right side... does the cam only record that way?
It always records the video. The app is only used to view the recorded videos, download them to your phone, configure settings or view live feed from the camera.
Yes, you need to format SD card before the first use. You can also format the SD card once per month to prolong its life span. You can format the card in the settings of the Fitcamx app. The length of video clips is one minute. In case of this dashcam you can't change it.
No, you don't. Fitcamx dashcam has loop recording. Once the SD card runs out of space, the dashcam will overwrite the oldest video files with newer ones.
Does it come in other trim colours because my rav4 is pale gray plastic cover not black your car does not seem to have many sensor built into the windscreen.
@@MorozovAutomotive i saw a video of them installing the rear camera, pretty simple, I hope your getting compensated for everybody that’s making a purchase or a discount code!
Actually we are not being compensated for this. But if you like our videos, you can always buy us a coffee or press the Thank You button in the RUclips menu above the video. :)
any updates in the performance after a year? any noticeable glitches? i have a 2023 rav4 prime xse and i'm considering this and the OEM version which is about $125 more expensive. this is more slightly integrated than the OEM which would be installed to the side rather than centered.
Hi, thanks for the video! Just have some questions: 1. Does the camera still work (I've noticed that lots of users are complaining about the cameras reliability) 2. Would you recommend buying one? 3. Did you install 2K or 4K Thank you!
Thank you for sharing. Just ordered one for my Corolla. You say that you "wish Toyota would integrate these." Isn't there a non-compete clause or something that prevents carmakers from doing this? It's a bit ridiculous. It's like telling airlines they can't put in black boxes due to a non-compete clause.
Hi, I was hoping you could help me. I'm trying to install fitxcam x front facing camera only. I have a rear camera in my Toyota r4 2019. My mirror assembly has something to the right of it, and it will not simply push down. The rear view mirror is digital and came with the Rav 4 limited edition. Are you able to comment on that?
Hi, thank you for your question. Unfortunately we have not tried to install the Fitcamx in the RAV4 with OEM digital rear view mirror. I am pretty sure there should be a way to remove the cover but it is hard to tell without looking at it.

You can install the hardwiring cable which gets connected to the fuse box. This way when the car gets hit while parked, the dashcam will record a short video file. Fitcamx has this cables for sale: Fitcamx Parking Mode Hardwiring Kit - amzn.to/3FDla1I.

It's awesome that they made a custom housing for it, but the recorded video quality is awful and much worse than the Viofo cams I've used. I've seen several samples of FitCamX videos on different RUclips channels, all of them have awful video quality. Real shame because I'd gladly use that if the quality was actually good.
I've heard horror stories with this camera. Like it stops working after a month. or it stops recording when the sd card is full even though it was set to auto loop. overheating issues as well. I would be hesitant to buy it until more reviews come in. It is great however on how stealth it is.
Yes, that's right, don't buy that cam ... I bought a fitcamx for a toyota rav4 and after some month trying to using it I can say that those cams are a crap, I never saw a thing like that, The cams doesn't work at all, not a loop recording, not 3 minutes recording .... just a waste of money and time... they looks good but doesn't work good... chinese crap !!!
This is not a scam. We installed a few of these cameras in different vehicles and they all are working fine. Your unit could be defective. If this is the case, you need to return it.

Thank you for the video. This camera is kind of useless if you really want the parking mode, that was my main concern but if you have to wire it like traditional ones it doesn’t make sense.
is the dash cam good. the only advantage i feel is the ease of installation as no external usb cable is required.

Quick question, when you disconnected Toyotas original built in safety camera did you have to calibrate anything?
Due to the fact that the ADAS camera was not unmounted it does not require a calibration. The camera has not moved but has simply been unplugged, this should be done while the vehicle is completely off. The camera will not know it was disconnected, so it will be similar to when you turn your vehicle off and the camera loses power, when you turn it back on it’ll be powered on and should be good to go as long as it was not unmounted.
Absolutely NOT, everything works great.just don’t force anything.
thanks for this great video. I can't get my existing base cover to slide down to get it off. How hard do you have to push to get it to slide down so you can get it off? I don't want to break my mirror off too. :)
Thank you! It should be fairly easy. The first time you remove it, it can be tight but it should not require too much force.
I bought this and installed it a couple days ago and one observation is that it gets noticeably hot. Especially the SD card slot. Almost too hot to touch for more than 10 seconds. Is yours like this?
It does get hot. But I would not say that it gets extremely hot. So far there are no issues with the dash cam.
Awesome nice video thank you again. I do have a question.. it will record video with the CarPlay connect ed ?
Thanks! Yes, it will work.

I'm listening to this on headphones and when you get to the playback of the cam at the end the audio is only on my right side... does the cam only record that way?
Nice Video, thanks. Installed the camera today. I am wondering if it is possible to set a mark while driving on the Cam witout touching the phone?
Thank you! Fitcamx dashcam does not have the "protection" button, which would allow you to protect the file from being overwritten.

Is it true that the camera becomes too hot and affects the operation of the equipment in the mirror housing?
No, we never had such issues.
Does that car need to subscribe internet with Toyota in order to connect dash cam to your phone?
No, the car does not be subscribed to the Internet. WiFi is being used to connect your phone to the dashcam - 05:34.
Do you have to format the SD card...and if so how? Does the camera do that? How long are the video clips and are there options for various lengths?
Yes, you need to format SD card before the first use. You can also format the SD card once per month to prolong its life span. You can format the card in the settings of the Fitcamx app.
The length of video clips is one minute. In case of this dashcam you can't change it.
Question: do you have to clear the video/SD card after every drive you take or does it do that automatically?
No, you don't. Fitcamx dashcam has loop recording. Once the SD card runs out of space, the dashcam will overwrite the oldest video files with newer ones.
Does this work on the 2020 Rav4 TRD model?
Yes, it should work.
Does it come in other trim colours because my rav4 is pale gray plastic cover not black your car does not seem to have many sensor built into the windscreen.
I believe it only comes in black colour.
Hey after installing did you notice any lane assist issues???
Can anyone please tell me if this Dashcam is suitable and will fit a 2023 RAV4 Hybrid Cruiser with Digital mirror ?
They have options on amazon, trims and year are included in the description. I think they have two types for the rav4, the one with vent and without.
Does this mess with any of the stock sensors?
There are no issues so far.
