DashCam Dashboard Video Recording Devices by Rostra

Introducing DashCam - a series of compact, fully-featured digital video capture systems that use a standard SD card for storage and record on-road video while you drive. The DashCam recording units and their associated accessories are specifically designed with mobility in mind. Their compact form factor means they blend seamlessly into most vehicle dashboards and windshields while providing easy access to their many features including video playback, starting and stopping recordings, and turning audio capture on or off. The CarBox software suite included with each Dashboard Video Recording System provides a sophisticated means of extracting video to a personal computer for editing, as well as providing access to many other features including overlaying GPS coordinates onto a Google Map to view driving patterns, and viewing telemetry data such as in-car G-forces experienced while driving.

Note: The CarBox viewing software requires a personal computer with Windows XP/7/8/10 installed for viewing and/or saving videos recorded by Rostra's DashCam systems.

Note: Rostra DashCams require a Class 10 or better SD card for recording video.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

" Just what I needed for my 1962 Thunderbird! Before installing this, I would get leg cramps holding the throttle constant while cruising, I swear the throttle return spring was originally a bed spring. Installed this beauty before taking my trip down RT 66 in 2015. Finally, 7500 miles in comfort!"

Jim H. - United States

250-1223 Universal Electronic Cruise Control
"This is great. It installed pretty easily. I put it on my F-350 so I can park easier since my front camera is obstructed my LED lights and a light bar. I easily installed the sensors in the air dam below the bumper."

Schawn D. - United States

Forward-Facing Parking Sensor System
"This installed very easily. I highly recommend it for anyone who needs this feature to make their car seat more comfortable. But this does require a high level of car handy skills, as you need to significantly disassemble a car seat."

Sam G. - United States

Universal Lumbar Support System
"I installed this in a 2018 RZR RS one. I ride in the winter and have only a windshield. I installed the seat heater and it keeps me very warm."

Ron B. - United States

Universal Seat Heater
"Once installed, the Jeep is more noticeable as one would expect. This is a very good safety upgrade--I was surprised DRL's were not standard on Wranglers. I have had compliments from other Wrangler owners."

Chessie T. - United States

Jeep Wrangler LED Fender DRL
