    OEM Dashcam install and review (DIY writeup instructions & photos)

    Toyota has their factory option Dashcam in all their vehicles and the Tacoma can come with the latest iteration too, part number PT949-34222. I think this one is called the 2.0 version: It comes with an industrial rated 16GB MicroSD card. Those are step above cheaper SD cards, in that they...
