Received a Wolfbox G900 for Christmas and do not like the "Strap on" style of mounting. Has anyone seen a compatible interface to mount a bracket on the Wolfbox that works with the factory mirror mount glued to the windshield? Wolfbox has been of zero help, offered me a dashtop style but that is just as bad a a strap on in my view.

What kind of headunit is that?
 
The head unit is made by Seicane (Chinese, about $425 all in), VERY happy with it but install was nearly blindfolded as there were virtually no instructions. About 6 or 7 emails to china and it now works very well, still sorting out a few lost functions (outside temp, radio signal strength and internet linking), steering wheel controls and sound (after replacing all speakers) is much better than I even suspected. Very interested in a Seicane thread for a 2004+ 100 Series if anyone can provide.
Thanks to all who took a look at my thread.

T'eyes by the look of it, TEYES Advanced Car Audio Infotainment Multimedia Navigation Systems - https://www.teyes.com.au. There's a huge thread here somewhere if you search on that.
Thank you!

Awesome! Thanks! Looks great.
 
Have you made any progress on this? Could you pop the mirror off the stock mount and put the wolfbox mount on that?

I'm trying to mount up a Wolfbox G930 dashcam/rear view mirror camera. So from what I've found, you'll need two parts. 1) The adapter bracket from wolfbox and 2) the bracket to attach the wolfbox adapter to the OEM mirror mount. For part 2, I just bought a #129 bracket from ebay (pic in the product description). The bracket won't be here for a couple weeks so I'll report back if it works.

I received the bracket from ebay and I've had my Wolfbox 930 dashcam/rear view mirror camera installed for a couple weeks now. The #129 ebay bracket is definitely what you need along with the mirror adapter bracket from wolfbox. Everything is working well and the clarity of the rear view camera mirror is excellent (during the day). At night it's harder to make out details, but you can definitely see all headlights and street lights. Overall, this was an excellent upgrade over the OEM mirror with alot of added funationality.

Below is my shopping list and I have approximately $180 plus tax invested so far. Most items bought through Amazon.
1) The mirror itself ( Wolfbox G930) - $100 / https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BRLYT8M1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
2) Wolfbox mirror bracket - $20 / https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B53FTB6L/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
3) The mirror adapter (#129 from ebay) - $20 / https://www.ebay.com/itm/386304687947

Optional Items:
4) Wolfbox Hardwire kit - $20 / https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X9F8GMT/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
5) Wolfbox License plate bracket - $20 / https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B91ZTXTJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Which wolfbox mirror bracket was used? Amazon is out of stock, there are 4 on the wolfbox website.

It's dependent on which mirror you're using. For my application, I used the G930 mirror. The mirror bracket I used was specific for that particular mirror. If you're using one of the mirrors listed on that page (G900/G850/G840S/G840H) I think any of those would work, but I would contact Wolfbox just to be sure. You're really only buying this part to use the backing plate (lower item in the picture below). The #129 adapter you have to purchase from eBay will replace the top item in the picture below. The #129 adapter from eBay is what will line up with the OEM mirror mount that's attached to your windshield.

Edit: Just wanted to add that the listing above is for all 12" mirrors (G900/G850/G840S/G840H). The mirror I used (G930) is a 10" mirror, so that's probably why the part listings are different between the mirror I used and all the others in the listing above. I chose the 10" mirror so it wouldn't interfere with my sunvisors (which it doesn't).

I'm thinking about the wolfbox. How are you liking it? Also, where did you mount your rear camera?
I like my Wolfbox mirror (G930) a lot. The image is super clear (during the day), the added functionality of having a dash cam with an included SD card is a nice bonus, my mirror has the GPS feature, so having the direction you're going and your speed displayed on the mirror is nice, and it looks kinda OEM-ish. The mirror is usually the first thing I get comments on when people ride in my LX. The only drawback that I see is that the night time image isn't great. You can see the street lights and headlights of other cars just fine, but it's hard to make out fine detail at night. They do sell a wide dynamic range (WDR) camera that you can buy separately. It's supposed to give a better night time image, so that might be an upgrade purchase in the future.

I ended up buying Wolfbox's license plate kit which mounts the camera on top of your license plate. I like this location as it gives a good image position and you can barely see the camera in this location.

you have mentioned that you got the G930 to avoid interference with the visors, and it doesn't. I am confused about the wording, do you mean you could have gotten the 12" version as well? Do you have at least an inch of clearance on each side?

And thanks for all the info you have posted!

This has been a very helpful thread, appreciate it very much.

Right now, the original screw (head) stripped and I'm waiting on the Toyota OE screw and base for remedying. Sucks having to wait when everything is ready to go for install.

I just went out and measured and I don't think any of the 12" mirrors would fit without you hitting the mirror with the visors everytime you need to use the visors. There is right at or a little less than 1" of clearance on each side of my 10" mirror. Maybe someone with a 12" mirror will chime in and let you know first hand if the visors hit. IMO, the 10" mirror is plenty big enough.

Thanks for the info, I was so eager to get this installed, I ordered the 10" G930 and a 12" G850, and will post pics for everyone visiting this thread in the future. Gotta love Amazon free returns

I can confirm the 10" fits, and the 12" doesn't
