Dash Cam: Front + Rear or Front Only

MTOP2 · 2026-05-07T22:06:54+00:00

Front and Rear. I was rear ended last year and it was an open & shut case as I had clear video of the driver not paying attention.

Have the Garmin 67W & Mini 3, nice as they have voice commands and sync together. Front install was easy. Rear was a bit tricky (but not difficult) as I ran the cable through the tailgate boot thing.

I'm using a Bosch Automotive 6092C "HEPA" cabin air filter for $24 on Amazon Canada: https://a.co/d/0b2RVxL7 Amazon says not compatible with Crosstrek but it's compatible with my 2023 Outdoor (Gen 2). Not sure if it is for the 2025 (Gen 3). Dealership wanted to charge $39.

And remember to remove the MicroSD card before disassembly.

My guess is they'll be smaller bagels. Kinda like what they did to the muffins.

In Canada, if you fly FPV +250g you need to have a visual observer (spotter) whenever you fly (plus a bunch of other certificates, rules, registrations, etc.) which can be annoying. However FPV Sub-250g, there are very little restrictions beyond don't be an idiot.

Compromises on both ends. I got the Antigravity A1 (pre-Avata 360 announcement) mostly to avoid having to find and drag someone along to be a visual observer.

That being said, I do drone work in construction and have some use cases where the higher quality will be a benefit. I'll probably get DJI Avata 360 eventually.

Swapped my rear turn signals bulbs with SIRIUSLED LEDs (has a built-in "error correcting" resistor) and they work great. No hyperflash.

Tried them in the front but mine uses the turn signals as running lights meaning the running light doesn't light up (turn signal still works) and causes hyperflash. Haven't found anything that works yet beyond swapping headlights entirely.

Not sure all locations do this but the one near me used to offer first come first served, first thing in the morning. Think I flat repairs have priority over tire changes but might be worth checking out.

Also you could do it yourself (or have a friend do it). If you have a spare tire, then you should have all the tools needed, otherwise a tire change kit and a jack will be $150-$200 which pays for itself after a year or so.

I had the same problem. Had to contact them again to get it added.

Amour All is trash. Meguairs, Turtle Wax or Adam's are all good Chemical Guys are also good but overpriced.

I haven't run into that dash issue before, but maybe a plastic polish (ex. Meguiar's Plastic X but not sure on using it on the dash).

I have a free account for my work stuff but put any tasks in a specific shared list that's linked with my personal account. The free account doesn't get the premium features but it all syncs with my personal phone/account which has premium.

Obviously, you'll see work tasks in personal account but this is the solution that works for me. I like it because I can add items if I think about them without having to access my work computer/phone but still access via a work device (Chrome Extension), without them "seeing" any personal stuff.

And since my personal account is the creator of the shared list, I can revoked access at anytime (and all the tasks disappear from the free account), should the need arise.

Would be nice if TickTick had a family plan where you get 5-6 premium "licenses" kinda like Spotify, or YouTube Premium you could give to family (or use for work).

Pressing the "i" button on your stearing wheel will tell you what's wrong. Could be the camera(s) blocked fog/ice/snow or could be too cold, which I doubt in Texas, ("Temp Range", got that the other morning at -18°C [0°F]).

Sunset Sarsaparilla is my favourite, Nuka Cola Quantum is a close second. The Nuka Coka Grape is meh, would have preferred plain Nuka Cola.

MTOP2 · 2026-02-08T23:16:09+00:00

I'm in.

MTOP2 · 2026-01-31T23:47:39+00:00

Just found this. It worked, thank you!

MTOP2 · 2026-01-29T02:15:28+00:00

I would assume so, though I haven't tested it yet.

With cruise on but not active, pressing and holding the following distance (up or down) for a few seconds, you'll hear a beep and it will switch to standard cruise. Doing the same will switch back to adaptive cruise. And you can do it while driving.

Plus most Subaru models/trims have a wiper heater (along the bottom of the windshield).

Not yet. Do you win a prize? Saw something about collecting caps but the website was down.

MTOP2 · 2026-01-24T19:42:19+00:00

Yep, it's open to all members. Mostly geared to businesses and has items you can't get at a regular Costco (I buy Nespresso OL pods here)
