Heavy Bass and Dash Cams

[Jeffdachef 5,000+ posts]

So first off, I'm getting a dash cam and main purpose is to just protect myself while driving, however I would really like to have it record when the car is off and someone hits my car or tries to break in /vandalize my car. Any recommendations under 50 or does that have to stretch to the hundred range to have a good parking mode option with motion detection?

Second, Some of the dash cams have shock sensor capabilities. Would 4 18s trigger that along with damaging the dash cam? Do i have to unmount that sh*t if I give full tilt demos? Would moderate levels of bass fk up the recording as well?

I'd assume that bass would shake the cam enough t not make it record good quality video while driving and bumping.

Not sure on price.

I'm making my amps/batteries easily removable and won't park it overnight on campus with them installed.

My subs are being built into the enclosure with other precautions I'm not going to mention online that would make them a bear to steal.

Worst case, I get a broken window and my door speakers stolen. ($250 in speakers/tweeters because the mids were Sundown yardsale)

A stripper pole will be in front of my radio, so it won't be possible to easily tear the radio out. Just making it barely possible to fit a CD

I have full coverage on my truck. My insurance would cover the broken window and I'd only be $500 out :shrug:

I'm doing several things to prevent the whole vehicle from being stolen. Weighing over 7,000 pounds helps //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I've been wanting to get a dash cam for a long time but my wife dahield moves way too much for a dash cam to even mount to it.

I do use different screws. I'm worried that they'll be ripped off the doors

i was literally just thinking about this the other day, something between $100-200, no preference tbh just needs to work 100%, but if i can find something similar in quality for 100 vs 200 ill save the money

something with this type of mount may work better due to the ability to use some of that badass 3m tape instead of a suction cup

no, they wont want to damage the product they jack or else it wouldnt be worth jacking, by that time, they'd just hotwire and take your whole vehicle instead.

I've heard of people getting pissed when they can't steal equipment, and breaking it instead. That's what I'm most worried about.

I'm doing several things to where they wouldn't be able to steal my truck even with the key. I can PM you if you want more info, but I don't plan on posting it

You're an idiot
