Wolfbox G900 Tri Pro install and impression

[StephC]

Overall, it feels just "meh"

Super pissed off that somehow there is a short in the AV wire to the front camera.... right at the banana plug (so I need to fix that)

It was on sale, so I got one for my husbands' Tundra and one for the Bronco...he likes his so that's good

I wanted more front parking assistance since I don't have the 365 or front parking sensors on my 24 OBX...not good for that at all. I also seem to have trouble with vibration, wireless connectivity, and freezing glitches.

Also, I need to find the dongle that eliminates all of the wires...they are super obnoxious.

Install was pretty straight forward...just not as impressed with the product as I was with the advertisements.

There is no dongle that eliminates all the wires and even if it did, you'll have to remove all of the ceiling/top windshield trim and a-pillar panels to tuck all that wiring somewhere. The rear camera seems a bit low, front camera looks like a great spot - not sure how that is not helping you for parking though. My rear camera is mounted in my spare and front camera on my front bumper since I already had the Ford 360 camera.

Nice! It’s not helping lol. I’m going to relocate the rear camera…I bought a bracket but at the time I was impatient

Thank you for your support. If you have any issue, please let us know. Our support center will offer help. The front bumper cam should help you judge how close it's getting to the edge/obstacle when parking. We're working to improve the product. Thank you.

That bungle of wires makes my hardwired Thinkware U1000 and Uniden R4 power dongle (just use on hwy) look super clean....who needs front park assist when hood line is so crisp...

Thninkware backs their stuff up 100% no hassles...

Since you're going to get the question, I'll ask it first. Which rear mounting bracket is that?

The only reason the front camera is not working for me is because there is a short in the wire so I need to fix that.

I plan to install a amount that will hold the camera much higher. The amount I made was just a simple DIY to hold the camera on the trailer hitch. I don’t really care for or use that camera very much but the whole system was on sale so I figured go big or go home.

It was custom made by a buddy of mine. It needed some slight modification to the mounting holes to open them up a little bit more. I needed to drill and tap for a m4 machine screw to hold the camera in place and I sprayed it with self-etching primer and matte black spray paint.

I need a buddy like that!

Is there a way to clean up all the wires coming from the mirror?

Yeah...pull the trim panels all the way to the A-pillar unfortunately and then bury all the excess wiring up where the sunglass holder/aux switches sit - in theory. But I'll know more in spring.
