I am really thankful for this opportunity and what Modified along with O4sshd has done for us to get us this group buy for the forum. Thank you very much!! I am wanting to sign up for it but before I do I had some questions.
Guys, forgive my OCD here with my questions and my limited understanding. I have read through the whole thread and also the link to the install of the unit by Phil314
https://www.fordtremor.com/threads/wolfbox-g900tripro-bumper-cam-install-complete.22530/ I really appreciated his thread and the fact that he is willing to share his drawing for the 3D print found here

So Here are my questions on the WOLFBOX G900TriPro Bumper Version 4K Sony STARVIS 2 Mirror Dash Cam with Exclusive 30-Month Warranty found here

1. The two cameras are meant to be able to be placed typically somewhere on the front bumper and also somewhere on the back bumper or as some have done to mount it up inside looking through the rear window. I am assuming that you have a dash camera which is on the backside of the mirror itself so that gives you 3 cameras. Am I correct in my understanding? If so I am assuming that is what gives the 3 camera views. And thus you can see all 3 cameras on the mirror. It makes sense since what I have gathered once you replace or cover over your rear-view mirror it makes sense to have the rear camera inside for your rear-view.
2. There has been discussion on getting the mount to replace your factory Rear-view mirror and mounting it directly to the mount on the windshield. It seems like that capability is not included in the kit and thus you need to purchase a separate mount for that which 04sshd has provided a discount code in order to purchase that. Am I reading that correctly?
3. I also understand that if you do replace the factory Rear-view mirror that you need to pull the electronics off of it so that you keep the factory capabilities shown in post #56. Am I correct in that? It is talked about in post #44 on the build thread

4. Then there is this discussion of this FitDVR

https://www.fordtremor.com/threads/wolfbox-g900tripro-bumper-cam-install-complete.22530/page-3 Posts #42. I get the impression that if you use the electronics from the factory Rear-view mirror that you would not need this. But I was wondering if there is still any benefit in having this other than the power. Clarification would be great on this as well.
5. I also saw where there is a license plate mount that you can purchase as well if you were to want to mount it that way. Will the code that we get when we sign up to purchase this through the group buy be able to be used for these extra pieces?
6. Looking at the website further I see that they have the Extended Pack which includes all these additional items for factory mount, license plate mount etc. See pic below. Will the group buy include this or is this something seperate?
7. For those reading this that have already installed this system do you like it? Do you regret not getting another dashcam system?
8. Do you have any regrets in losing the factory Rear-View mirror?
Thanks for hanging with me on my long post and my OCD!
