How to Find the Optimal Location for your Dash Cams



Dash cams have become such a great tool that should be in every vehicle owners. It has helped a ton of people protect themselves in situations of accidents and fraud. The power of this device is insurmountable especially with the heightened usage of social media. However, if you are just about to purchase one for yourself or if you have one already, you might be wondering how to properly install one on your car? Where should you place it and what tools should I have to have on hand to get it attached.



Good Location of Dash Cams
Unlike GPS, installing a dash camera must be placed in an optimal position. Where is that? According to experts, you must ensure that you have full coverage of either the front and/or rear view when placing the camera in your car. Still confused? Then you should rely on where to place your camera on its size, shape, and design.

Experts highly recommended that the camera should be behind or just below the front of the rear view mirror. Another thing you can keep in mind is that use the centre of the rear view mirror handle (the one that is attached on the windscreen) as general guide where to place it.

Make sure that the mounting bracket is faced forward and positioned below the line because it’ll guide you that the lens of the camera is forward and can capture everything in view. You must check that the camera is not facing the sky capturing planes and birds instead of the road.

You can also try installing it where it feels right for you. If you think that placing it in the middle of the dashboard is much more effective than behind the rear view mirror than go for it. Just review the footage you got from it and see if it does see the entire road landscape.

Dashboard cameras are truly nifty and amazing devices because of its power of subtle video recording that just help you keep you safe on the road. That is just the basic essence of this device.
