Can you guys tell me if I place a Vantrue Nexus 2X here, will it block any sensors on the rearview mirror or screw anything else up with the car?

I just bought the same one but I am going to send it back, I thought was smaller... it's huge! looks horrible just at the side of the rear mirror.
I tried to fix it sticked to the plastic area under/behind the mirror but still you can see a big device, to me is not stetic, you can notice you have something ugly in your front.
I would like to install something better integrated in the car, also I have to remark my car is convertible, so anybody can rob easily when the roof is open.

This week I ordered the BlackVue DR970X-2 Channel Box Version. The front camera is one of the smallest I've found and I like the slim form factor. The "Box" version includes a remote mounted box that houses the processor etc., allowing for a smaller camera. I start the install next week.

It was too big. I also returned it and bought the Viofo A119 Mini and it looks great. I put it all th way in top right of the plastic. Almost looks OEM lol.

So I am looking for a super small camera with the following features:

1. Small
2. Park mode so it's on when car is parked.
3. Rear camera support.

Nothing fancy, just something that will protect the car when parked and record evidence when the idiots crash into me.

TIA!

PS. Looking at a
A119 MINI 2 But apparently it does not support a rear camera.

I mounted mine just behind the rearview mirror so it’s hidden and doesn’t block my view. Ran the power wire along the headliner and down the A-pillar to the fuse box.

Last Friday, I actually used my video cams. I had a collision occur right in front of me, a 65 mph, no brakes collision.

That left arrow light is actually red, not sure why it is yellow here. Anyway, the flow is staggered at this intersection, so that each of the main lines get a chance to turn. There is no flashing green/yellow left turn from either direction. So, when the 2 non-turn lane lights turned green, the left turn lane had a red light. The Caddy turned left in front of that truck, and bounced into the SUV to the right. The truck’s engine compartment looked like an accordion. Surprisingly, the driver of the truck was up and walking around with no visible injuries. I had to turn but stopped to render aid and got the video to the local law.
Damn that was a hard hit.
