Hi @WolfBox

Thanks for the survey and opportunity to influence future product development.

I'm using a G900 'no-pro' with the rear camera inside behind tinted privacy glass.

1. The rear camera struggles in low light/high contrast environments, i.e. driving at night on dark roads with traffic behind. That saturation is too high and the image gets washed out by the reflection of my own brake lights. Needs a software option to manually tune the rear camera for mounting behind glass, especially saturation and RGB.
A CPL lens filter might reduce flaring from other vehicle headlights.
I don't have access to the G900pro to see if there has been any improvement in these areas.
2. As noted by others and earlier by me in the 20% discount thread; the Wolfbox product needs to extend usability for off-road and towing by adding another external camera port, e.g. for a forward-facing terrain/trail camera or a trailer/camper rear mounted camera. This could be achieved in the mirror but would take significant engineering and cost and possibly require a product branch. This functionality could also be achieved inline at the existing rear camera cable via a camera swap box or a manual switch that is sold as a Wolfbox accessory.

If you wanted to deliver a fully featured off-road and towing solution then a multi-camera powered hub could be developed. This makes the mirror a slate from which the driver can access imagery from all around the vehicle or behind their camper. Thinkware have done something like this for their dashcam products but it also multiplexes the camera streams for recording. I'm not suggesting that, just an off-mirror hub to connect and power multiple cameras and send the selected channel to the mirror for display.

Thank you so much, sir, for your sincere suggestions! All is noted.

I have the G900.
I have mine mounted on a 67 sevens design. Very good.

I would love to have extra camera inputs. 3 more would be great.
I would love to have extra wide cameras sold as accessories for my use case.
Even better if I could get a box somewhere on the main rear camera wire that can transport several camera signals in one wire to up the mirror for a clean install.
I would put one up front to be used as a near car camera for going over rocks. Useful when I'm by myself and have to go over something gnarly.
I would be okay if I have to activate that camera manually.

Id love to have one on each side of my car. Ideally in the side mirrora but I could put them up by the roof rack. Activates either manually or when turn signals are active as a blind spot camera. I would also use this on slot canyons or forest roads to see how close I am to a wall or a tree.

Last wish...
I wish the mirror autodim a bit better at night. I think it's a touch too bright at night when I get it right for daytime. And it i get it right at nighttime it's too dim for night time. I would love if that was two different settings.
