and the craziest part? compared to the locals, my fastest is still abysmally slow.

I have that model on my BRZ. I took em off when I traded my BRZ. If you want, I’ll sell em to you… not really sure how much you want em. I still got the hardwires, so literally you just need replacement 3M for the rear cam & lil adapter/3M (which is <$15). As for the installation, BlackBoxMyCar blog did that model on FRS, so you just do exactly the same step.

Been a long time since we had to spend any money raising the kids so any extra now goes to toys. Hopefully these things are old by the time they get them.

The boat's name is actually "Kid's Inheritance".

I've had a video of one of my fastest runs on a local road here on YouTube for a while. So far so good. Definitely can tell how fast I'm going in it though lol.
