We captured a hit a run on our dash cam the other day. A cyclist blew through a red light and hit a car going through the intersection on green, breaking off its wing mirror. The cyclist then took off (they are a menace around here, riding at speed on sidewalks or the wrong way on a street, ignoring traffic signs, etc.)
I digress... the point is, we offered our video and, having looked at it, the front view is great (i.e. HD) but the rear view is essentially useless due to the low resolution of the camera. We have had iTrue X6D cameras in both cars for a couple of years and have been very happy with how they work and the video (because we've only been interested in what's up front). On this occasion, it would have been good to see what happened in the aftermath behind. As it is, the resolution isn't even good enough to read a license plate, and certainly not identify anyone in the video.
Anyone know if there's an upgrade to the rear camera for this device, or if any other kind of camera would work? I can solder on the right jack plug if necessary. The only accessory on their site is a GPS logger: Car Electronics - Products - iTrue
