I didn't know GM was selling Thinkware products, but FYI, it is $150 cheaper on Amazon.

i saw the listing but it did not have the harness that gm provides, but at the same time it will conflict with the range disabler i have plugged in

Definitely understand that....

I have a lower end model in my ES350. I believe it is a U1000. I didn't really want the rear camera. I wired it in to one of several 12v points and never unplug it. Great camera, mine is just very sensitive to the type/brand of SD card used. Sometimes it reads my 256GB card and other times it doesn't.

In my Stingray, I turn on PDR as soon as I buckle up.

There are OBD spliters. You should be able to run both.

Greetings,

No, however, I recently installed a Thinkware A800PRO 2K QHD Dash Cam in my 2016. (Amazon $199). Installation was a breeze, ran the cord down the passenger side front windows, under dash, along console to center console and plugged it in the cigarette lighter. Works seamlessly...and, I think the card is much larger than EchoMaster.

It's a great piece of mind safety device...and can be moved from one vehicle to the next....
