Nope not yet. Just haven't gotten around in getting one for the rear facing. The front cam was my priority cause I've had people cut in front of me in traffic. Had too many close calls with fucken idiots who drive SUV's. They don't physically look before changing lanes. Oh, and cause our cars are small and low they don't see us most of the times.

Yes this is so frustrating, I've had a Mazda rx8 and an s2000, this vehicle gets seen less then both of those by a long shot. I had 18 wheelers swerving into my lane. Thankfully the edelbrock let's me accelerate quickly enough to avoid becoming a pancake, but in parking lots it is insane

The colour of your car is named after the surface you are driving on so that probably doesn't help. People don't seem to have an issue seeing me.

Always park in sight of my security camera. Using a Foscam / Amcrest camera and Blueiris software license. First weekend I put it out, caught a girl trying to open my car doors at 6:45 AM on a sunday morning.
