KIA EV6 INSTALL (available for other cars)
There are many dashcams out there. What attracted me to FitcamX was that it looks 100% factory. Gone are the days where dashcams look like an afterthought. FitcamX makes custom-made dash cams for individual vehicles, so no universal applications here.
In this video, we unbox, install, review, and give you a discount code to get your own. This particular one is designed for the Kia EV6, all trims! However, this is for the LHD trims only. Apparently RHD model is slightly different.

Solid review for this cam, thanks for another awesome video. It looks so clean and OEM. I really really need one now.

@Emadifications Год назад

Yeah appreciate it. I want one for each of my cars now.

@artjomborissov4990 Год назад

Nice review! Thanks. Will look in too it and would gladly use your code.

@Emadifications Год назад

Glad you liked it. Really appreciate and get excited to see comments like yours that justify why I like making videos! Tried to make sure I emphasized the good and mentioned what it doesn't do (cloud, motion detection, always on, etc.). Thanks for the support if you end up getting one! Use the link in my description and the discount code (not just the discount code).

@THSPicturesYT 7 месяцев назад

Good morning. Short question. If you press the recording button on the housing, the emergency recordings are saved in the length you set in the app (3min, 5min etc.) is my question. Is the time of pressing always the end of the video? Or is it the middle of the video (from 5min setting, 2.30min before pressing and 2.30min after) Unfortunately I haven't seen any reviews of this here on RU-vid. Best regards

@kevinspinhirne3637 10 месяцев назад

I'm thinking about getting this for my Ioniq 5, but I really like having the GPS and speed recording of my current dash cam. I may wait a while and see if they come out with a more advanced version with those features. Otherwise, seems like good video quality and I really like the OEM look. By the way, I recognized those streets - we must live in the same city.

@Emadifications 4 месяца назад

Haven't had any issues. Just be aware it doesn't have gps or accelerometer. But for while I'm driving, it's great. Doesn't record all the time, though. Just when powered up. Haven't needed it otherwise. The quality, app, and reliability has been great. And love the look. Forget it's there.

A friend of mine got a FitcamX for his Porsche 911 992 it looks simple as it would have been fitted by Porsche itself. The only problem his facing he can't connect using the FitcamX app on his iPhone but the Dash Cam works it records, plus the Sound itself.

I don't have home link in my wind awd w tech. Let me check with others. I don't think it impacts it as it just piggybacks off the power, but doesn't intercept anything. Rain sensing wipers still work.

@alwaystrippi 11 месяцев назад

I appreciate the video, but in the future when doing a video installation you should have the camera on the area you are working not a foot or 2 back with a camera on your head. You can't see what you are doing? You're talking about it but you can't actually see what you are doing. :(. From the beginning of the removal of the casing, you used the tool they provided to remove it but you can't see where you are putting it because of you camera angle. Something to think about....

@Emadifications 11 месяцев назад

Feedback received for sure. Even when I was watching this, I thought something similar. Ive bought some mounts to get some better angles for videos like this.

@CapeFrank57 8 месяцев назад

I have a question for you. Why does the camera keep on cutting off? Is it because you cannot operate the camera and Apple CarPlay at the same time?

@flipphlop808 6 месяцев назад

Just bought this with the companies fuse box kit. You won’t get parking mode unless you hardwire it to the box or obd. The standard one everyone review is easy install but worried about how it could affect the cruise sensor in the long run. Hardwiring it you at least get to tap it off a less essential component and you get the parking mode feature. Website says it will only record major collisions during parking mode and a one minute video that can only delete manually on the app. Battery will never drain since it’s not continuous recording in park mode.

@donniev8181 5 месяцев назад

Your car insurance should cover anything that happens to your parked car. Dashcams are primarily for vehicle accidents to help determine fault.

@MrMilanina 4 месяца назад

I don't understand why it doesn't store the video in clips. In essence if you turn off the engine you lost your video unless you downloaded it to your phone beforehand. :(

@jamesmorgan2465 2 месяца назад

My friend's Answer from FITCAMX Support He is not facing the problem you have all his clips are saved onto the SD Micro Card even when the car is turned off they are still on the SD Card which came along with the Dash Cam including the adaptor to use if you want to transfer your clips onto the Computer which I recommend you can always delete the old clips later on. 1. Yes, our dash cam also supports recording sound, you can turn it on in the settings of the APP. 2. Since our dash cam records in a loop, the 'oldest video' you mentioned will be overwritten by the latest video after some time. 3.If you want a certain video not to be overwritten, you can click the 'camera button' on the dash cam during recording to lock it so that the video will not be overwritten. Locked videos will be stored in the 'Locked file'.

@Martinedo_ Год назад

It seams they also make a rear camera. this one is not OEM integrated right? have you tried it?

@Emadifications Год назад

The rear one looks like it should be wired to run to the back of the car and attaches to the rear somewhere just like many others do. So you will have to run the wire back to the car tucked properly. I haven't tried it out but asked them to provide it so I can review it.

@shepshape2585 3 месяца назад

You could also look at it the other way. If you're involved in an accident but the other person's attorney uses your dash cam footage to prove you were speeding, even if only a few miles an hour, it could turn against you. No proof of speed might actually be a good thing.

@aerofly2 3 месяца назад

@kennglee Год назад

I had a neighbor try this camera with his 2022 Accord. While the video quality was good, because the camera connected via the phone’s Wi-Fi, the camera kept cutting out, as his Android Auto would cause the camera to stop recording when it disconnected the Fitcamx wi-fi connection. Essentially, each would terminate the other’s connection, as only one could connect at a time, and each tried to be the one connection. Too bad.

@Emadifications Год назад

So mine doesn't stop recording when it's not connected to wifi or anything. Android auto didn't interfere either. I haven't had any intermittent issues with it of not recording at all. The only complaint I have is my phone, if wifi is on, will connect automatically to the camera wifi network... But a simple de-select of "connect automatically" solved that problem.

@reidanthony8487 5 месяцев назад

The camera records whether or not it's connected to the phone. The phone app is used to review and save videos/pics that is saved on the camera in the sd card.
