does anyone have any experience with the camera from this site /geelyevs/ :

Not yet, but I’m tempted to purchase the ‘Front 4K+ Rear 1080P+ 128G’. I asked Geelyevs for details of the rear camera a couple of days ago and I’m still waiting for a reply, hopefully it’s no worse than the others pictured here.
Incidentally, I’m really surprised that some people seem to be happy with visible clips and connectors and cables trailing all over the place.
Thanks, it will be great to gather more detailed information.

Can install without visible clips and cable. In my car it's undetectable. The only cable visible being the one attacked the rear camera which is ~1cm

Have a look at the clips on the back end of the will it fit plastic. ^

Also put a cloth / paper towel between the smider and the glass to avoid grazing. Though the plastic marks do wipe off.
Thanks once again for your incredibly useful support! That absolutely did it - I located the two bottom clips from your photo and pushed upwards, hard, and the Will It Fit board just popped right off!

Camera is fully installed now and not a wire to be seen! This forum has been a lifesaver!

I didn’t receive a reply to my email so I tried their on-line chat. After several exchanges it was obvious they didn’t know what rear camera was supplied or how it was mounted, all they know is on the website. I’ll probably buy from AliExpress where there is more buyer protection if things go wrong and there is plenty of choice, including FitcamX. The front camera housings and wiring connections all look the same, but the rear cameras differ.

I received my FitcamX and was positively surprised with the costumer service. They tracked the package and when it got held in customs they asked me to pay and in the same day reimbursed all the fees that I paid. The installation was very quick. I have a Core, so the mirror is not electrified, but just after placing the order I asked for the different cable and they sent it me to connect to the rain sensor. Everything works well so far and it looks like it's part of the car.

I have the Fitcamx on my RAV4, the only shortcoming of Fitcamx dashcams is the absence of a GPS receiver and consequently the tracking in the recordings.
