Dash Cam

Bought the OEM dash cam with upgraded SD card slot for $160. Was a little dubious particularly after I saw some posts about the cables not always there. Well my wife installed them both this afternoon and they are both working great. Considering some of the quotes for a standard dash cam install I'm stoked! Edit to say Sealion 7

Which model?

Did yours not come with an sd card slot, or if it did, what’s upgraded about the new one?

If it's the SL7 the SD card slot will cause the camera to not start on entry and it's best to use a usbC drive and the original port dock

Exactly what @Grugly said. I just switched mine back over to the original module for that exact reason. If you precondition the cabin it never works with out a system reset and starting normally seems to be a 50/50 without resetting the system.

Ok I will see how this goes. Haven't used the car yet as away for work. Will be disappointed if I have to swap it back.

No it just comes with the USB slot

Ok had to change back to the original type c box. As previous posters said the camera wouldn't work properly. It would if you reset the screen, but who wants to do that every trip. Apparently it's a software issue and will eventually be corrected.
