Auto-Vox V5 Pro Video Mirror installed - Maverick Lariat

[Gonzo_042]

I replaced the OEM rearview mirror with the Auto-Vox V5 Pro full-screen Video Mirror that has built-in Front&Rear Cameras. It also records both cameras' views simultaneously to an SD card. Good to have for any accident footage, road rage support, or if you like editing video of your road trip(s). I could not attach the live video sample of the mirror in active mode. The standard price is around $240.00. https://store.auto-vox.com/oem-mirror-dash-cam-v5pro.html I ended up buying mine brand-new on eBay for $188.98. I had to use a 3-pin mini fuse tap to fuse ports 1-2 for ACC and a 2-pin mini fuse tap to fuse port 10 for power to turn on when you start the Maverick.

Wait so is it actually a mirror or is it only video from your hitch? I wouldnt want to only see whats behind the camera instead of the full reflective view.

you can turn off the auto-vox mirror and still use it as a regular mirror. I had an older model in my mustang because of the small rear window and the dark tint made it harder to see at night, I added this upgraded mirror to the Maverick because I had three friends in the back that blocked the review mirror view, plus I really like the full camera view from the rear camera. I see the full view of what is behind me in the daytime and nighttime. you can also touch the mirror screen and move the camera view up and down for the preferred camera level.

this photo goes with the last one, when I connected the ACC and power to the passenger side fuse box I ran the camera cable along the passenger floorboard to the back of the rear seat and followed the cable harness that went to the back of the bumper. hope this photo helps

Oh ok. I wasnt sure from the pics and was worried about full time video. It looks good and may be something i will consider since we are getting a cap. Thanks.

I have an almost exact set up in my 2010 Escape. I have my rear cam above the license plate, (outside the vehicle). Only thing I'll warn you about, is that you living in Florida, and the camera mounted externally that low, is that overspray when it's raining, is that that cam is always going to be covered and not very viewable.

Correct you can turn the video off and use the mirror as a regular viewing mirror. I also spray rain dance or rain x on the camera lens to help the water flow off better.

I installed the same mirror for the dash cam. I ran my wires through the black trim above the mirror you cannot see any wire. I put the gps sensor under the dash and it works fine there. Really like this mirror.
