Thanks Tcoat!

Did have to clutch kick it but it was really responsive and I was able to do that smoothly, so be sure about a BRZ.

Unfortunately, DMV drivers still got me later that night..

Side question - How do you like the Blackvue setup? I was looking at the front/rear 2CH also!

If I can also request some pics of setup and placement

It's been good once I updated the firmware. Decided on setting it up behind rear view mirror and top middle of rear windshield. Potato quality pics below.

Unfortunately I did not document install, but it's just really wire tucking and avoiding the pillar airbags using zip ties. I ran battery wire for power pro unit through part of the intake nose generator tube leading into passenger footwell.

I have to agree. I've been living in the NOVA area for about a year and a half and Virginia drivers are the worst I've ever seen.
