I ran mine for months with the straps, and it really wasn’t a problem. It’s very solid. I did order the mount after some time, just out of boredom. It’s not necessary though.
That’s a very interesting idea. Please share if you go this route. I might follow.
Thanks for the heads up, I just ordered one too!
Did you ignore the reverse circuit wire and just tape it up, or put a close end connector on it? I forgot to mention that wire. It’s not required. If it were being triggered, it could hold you on the reverse camera.@WOLFBOX
So I'm going to be completely transparent here.
I just finally got my Wolf box G900 tri pro bumper version installed a couple days ago after taking advantage of the Black Friday sale. Was super excited to get it installed although I hate doing wiring. Nonetheless got everything hooked up and versus using the direct connection to the fuse box, I have the auxiliary switches in my gladiator and thanks to the help and direction of @WILDHOBO was able to direct connect to the cabins secondary connections under the glove box that are present for those who have the auxiliary group. Goes for a lot cleaner, looking connection in my opinion, and less to run outside of the Jeep.
Overall, I like it's functions and abilities. Hence the whole reason I made the purchase in the first place.. however I'm having a handful of random issues and don't even know where to begin.
First of all, the system randomly just shuts down in the middle of driving, which I find odd. And usually doesn't come right back on immediately without unplugging the power and plugging it back in.
Secondly, at one point, the screen, even after rebooting would get stuck on my rear camera specifically under the grid lines screen as if I was adjusting the lines L M or H etc. (which I don't even have set for the rear mind you) but on top of that doesn't even give me the back arrow at the bottom left to go back to the original screens or even the Settings menu. Was literally stuck on that screen. The only thing that got rid of it is power cycling. I've done a factory reset and it seemed to get rid of that problem. (Atleast for now).
Lastly, and I'm not sure if this is due to an update or something on my end, but on all cameras I cannot slide the brightness up and down from the camera screen as I've seen others do before on the right side of the screen. Also I'm not sure which cameras have the function but I can only zoom in on the rear.
I'm not sure if I need a firmware update or what but even that seems complicated and I can't find much information. I just want it to work properly. First photo is the screen it was stuck on. Again this has seemed to be fixed for now. But with the random shitting off, not sure if it will happen again.
yes for the rear I just ignored it. Thanks for that clarification too. Figured so. It's zip tied to the rest of the rear wire neatly. I preferred not to used the reverse wire considering my stock backup camera works fine.
I’d make sure the end of that reverse trigger wire is insulated. I’ve never had mine zoom, but I can pan up and down to adjust what shows in the mirror. But only when just one of the cameras is being viewed.
