Where can a dash camera be installed?

We can install a dash cam on the Gold Coast in any type of vehicle

You can install a car or truck camera in your vehicle in different locations depending on the space you have available, the type of camera system you want to use and your budget. We are able to install cameras for reversing systems or dash cams so they can be viewed on a cabin mounted monitor on a bracket, on the roof, to replace a standard reversing mirror or as part of an integrated stereo system with LCD screen. There are so many different options available for cars, trucks, motorhomes or campervans. The cameras can then be mounted next to the number plate, on the rear of a vehicle on the roof or on the bumper bar depending on the shape and surfaces available on the vehicle.

We can install cameras on old or new cars as well as motorhomes on the Gold Coast.

We have installed just about every brand of Dash Cam on the market and yes, everything is hardwired and professionally installed. With some entry level dash cameras that just have a cigarette lighter plug we will wire in an accessory socket up under the dash so it’s out of sight.

Hardwire kits are often sold separately.

What are the benefits of getting a dash cam installed on the Gold Coast?

If you have a dash cam installed in your vehicle on the Gold Coast you have the ability to record video that can provide irrefutable evidence in the case of a theft, an accident dispute or even an insurance claim being processed. It is an aftermarket product you can install on your vehicle whether it is a car, 4WD, SUV, van or motorhome that can protect you, your family, tools or equipment or even a valuable classic car. 

There are so many poor drivers on the roads on the Gold Coast that you never know when something might happen. If there are no witnesses then a dash cam is the only way you can prove what actually occured at the time. It is the best way to avoid vehicle crash disputes or even insurance scams. It is why they have become a very popular vehicle installation choice because they are not included in a new vehicle sale.

Most high quality dash cams have built in or even optional GPS module accessories that can enable the system to capture the speed, location and coordinates of the motor vehicle when it is functioning. The logging of such details can be played back showing the speed the vehicle was traveling a the time, along with real-time location movements of where the vehicle has been. This can be used to dispute the location or speed you were driving at during the time of an incident.

Here are the key benefits;

  • Automatic and continuous recording of visual events and audio (model dependant)
  • Capture evidence that can be used to dispute motor vehicle collisions or any wrong-doing
  • Provides refutable video evidence that can be given to police, insurance companies or court.
  • It is a protective mechanism against reckless drivers and people
  • Analyse Speed / Time / Date and Location of driver using vehicle
  • Surveillance through motion detection while a vehicle is parked
  • Effective and efficient management of logistical fleet vehicle maintenance
  • Evidence of any on road activity (accidents, theft, pedestrian activity etc)
 

A dash cam is getting more mentions on the news than ever before due to their ability to capture everything that happens around a vehicle. Channel 7 News even reported that some insurance companies will reduce their premiums if you have one.

Wiring and power for dash cams on the Gold Coast 

If you are thinking about getting a dash cam installed on the Gold Coast one of the big questions you have to ask yourself is how will it be powered? A lot of the cheaper models can be powered by your cigarette port, although a lot of newer cars don’t have one of these, so you need to have a USB port and a model that has that connection. Even then you need to make sure it will have suitable power draw requirements, but then, where or how do you charge your mobile phone or other electronic devices if a socket is always taken up?The other consideration is all the cabling that will be sitting on the dash and over your controls. 

So some models are easy to install yourself, but they can post other practical problems inside the vehicle.

There are dash cam models that might have a really long cable so that it can be run from the top of the windscreen and tucked under the roof lining or door pillar. This can be a cleaner type of installation but takes time, patience & you run the risk of damaging your vehicle’s interior. You have to minimise any visual obstructions the cables should run from the windscreen and along the front passenger side to the power outlet. This looks better but in the event the cables become loose, there are less possibilities to cause visionary obstruction or distract the driver operating the motor vehicle.

What CCS Technology can do is provide a mobile installation service where we hard wire dash cam directly to your vehicle. It becomes an integrated part of your vehicles accessories and looks or feels like it was installed as an original item on the vehicle. It looks better, has less practical shortcomings and you don’t need to worry about charging ports and the like. There are quite a few new models of dash cam that no longer operate from the cigarette power outlet and may require a direct hard wired installation.

The big benefit of a hard-wired installation is you can have support for things like ‘parking mode’ , ‘surveillance mode’ or ‘motion detection mode’ that can do continuous recordings even when the vehicle ignition is turned off. The power wiring kits vary for each respective model, and may also be known or refereed to as; UPS (uninterrupted power supply) or power prevention discharge device. These models are designed to operate until they sense the vehicle battery has reached a particular voltage to make sure it doesn’t drain your battery.

There are some models of dash cam that can also be set up to operate as a reversing camera. These can be integrated to work with other security systems. This is why it makes a lot of sense to contact a professional dash cam installer to have a unit put into your vehicle and operating correctly & safely.
