Rearview Mirror Dash Cam DVR Recorder

A Mirror For Your Mirror With A Camera

Listen, nobody is saying this is the best dash cam in the world. It’s not even officially a dash cam but rather a sort of mirror cam. Yet like all heroes, its greatest weakness is also its greatest strength, for it definitely wouldn’t cost ten bones if it didn’t have some quirks.

If you missed this the last time we sold this thing, here’s WTF is happening: This is a rear-view mirror that goes over your existing mirror and has a dash-cam-like camera built in to the back. The camera displays on an LCD inset within the mirror.

“Why do I want a screen that shows me what’s directly in front of me?” That’s a good question, Hypothetical Savvy Meh Shopper. The screen is just how you tell that it’s pointing at the right angle and recording.

Kind of elegant and kind of weird, right? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But if you’re thinking about trying out a dash cam, either for insurance reasons, for documenting your thrilling road trip through North Dakota, or for capturing something cryptozoological, this is a good place to start.

And, like we said, if it were a perfect product, it wouldn’t be $10 – you’d be forking over full retail. So consider its blemishes a boon.

Imperfection is under-appreciated in this society. We pretend like we value the best and most perfect people, products, and events, but we really don’t. What makes Indiana Jones a great character? His fear of snakes. What made your last vacation so memorable? When you had to pull over the side of the windy road and throw up. What’s the most exciting part of a baseball game? The very hits that keep it from being perfect.

If it weren’t for imperfect spouses, you wouldn’t have been able to get one. If it weren’t for imperfect dash-cams, wouldn’t have been able to afford one. If it weren’t for day-old doughnuts, you wouldn’t … nevermind, day-old doughnuts are gross.

Features

  • Front-facing (not rear-facing) camera built into a rearview mirror that attaches to your existing rearview, like those big sunglasses old people wear over their glasses
  • Little 2.7" monitor built right into the mirror so you can see … what’s in front of you
  • Mirror is tinted blue to reduce glare, but purportedly this can make it kind of dark
  • Endless loop 720p video recording in case of asteroid sighting or asshole driving
  • Model: 02551 (Who in their right mind would pit their product’s model number against that of vampire warrior princess Monique Denoir? She becomes only stronger with each felled foe (presumably).)
