Wolfbox g900 mirror dash cam with off road video - install and review

[Bird Dog Off Road]

Recently added the Wolfbox g900 dash cam/mirror (by @Daniela at 3W Auto Life) to my 2021 Bronco. A must have if you have larger tires or a cargo area full of gear. Not only does it enable sight out of the obstructed rear of your Bronco, it provides the peace of mind from liability of those reckless drivers out there. You can also use it for filming your off-road excursions in 4k! Simple to install and highly recommend.

Ford needs to implement a rear view camera into the mirror.

Is the rear camera waterproof? I've got a Brandmotion 1120 and it's frankly a piece of shit. I'm on my third one and it still has quality issues. But I've also got a soft top. I like the Brandmotion rear camera location, I just wish the hardware was actually robust.

Whats crazy is that they already have one on their Police Explorers! I would love for them to carry that over to the Bronco

If there's one thing I've learned from work it's that nothing is ever easy on these vehicle programs. It wouldn't surprise me if the police vehicles are specialty low volume vehicles assembled by Roush or something like that. you'd think you could just tap into the existing cameras, but trust me it is far from that simple given all the different suppliers.

Dang I wish they were made by Roush. They also get perimeter alert and a proper column shifter

My understanding is yes, as you’d have to mount it externally on a soft top Bronco.

I have the G900, it's great! I mounted the rear cam on top of the brake light with 3m tape since I have a soft top. It's been working very well for the last year or so, I really like it for wheeling to see rigs behind me. Only drawbacks, the rear view cam doesn't work well in the rain and I can't check the rear mirror if I have a booger.

While off-roading and bouncing around, the added weight of this causes my mirror to tilt down. Anyway to tighten up the oem mirror ?

I don't know about tightening up the Ford mount but I think Wolfbox sells a replacement mirror mount for just the Wolfbox mirror cam.

Ah ok I’ll look for that. I have the 840s so I have it strapped over the oem .

I ran my rear camera to the spare tire.

May have to look into this if I ever get to remount a spare tire… I couldn’t see a damn thing out of the regular mirror when it was on!

Oh nice, where'd you get the camera mount? That's how my Brandmotion is mounted.

I bought it on Amazon. I had to do some cutting to make it work because it was made for Jeeps bolt pattern. Turned out great I used Wolfboxes hardware and made it work.
