The FitCamX and the Lucky8 model look pretty similar. Does anyone know if they are the same or have any opinion on which one may be better?

Was this site: https://www.landroverpartscounter.co...-cam-vplkv0134



on Land Rover's site (https://accessories.landrover.com/us...0134-dash-cam/) it just sends you to various dealers site and some have model years that only go to 2023. so granted I didn't do a deeper dive by calling a dealer since I liked the flush mount on the FitCam and the price was cheaper.

Thanks for the quick reply. Ok, so I’m hoping that those sites just haven’t been updated since -23 then. Taking delivery of the car next Friday so will look into it then. Fingers crossed.

I had the Lucky8 and had to return it. App was terrible and I couldn’t get it to synch with the camera.that being said, Lucky8 was excellent about the whole thing.

Well, you can install FitCamX in about ten minutea, five if you have done it before. Way too easy! I looked at the OEM / JLR camera and it was overpriced and didn't integrate as well.

I just finished installing the rear camera, somewhat of a pain but if I had to do it again it wouldn't take too long. BTW, only two bloody knuckles, lol.
