I installed this Vueroid S1 4K Infinite after my EV9 was hit while parked. This setup gives front/rear coverage in a rental car using OBD power instead of fuse taps or a dedicated battery pack. The big things to watch are cable routing around the pedals, rear camera placement inside the wiper sweep, and voltage cutoff settings, especially in hybrids.
