Getting the SD card out the top is a bit of a PITA. Removing the SD card and viewing the images on a laptop/desktop provides a superior experience which leads to one of my gripes about the G900. The recorded image quality is top notch even when viewed directly on the G900. The front cam with its 170 degree FOV makes the slightly adjustable physical aiming of the front cam somewhat superfluous. I was able to locate an adapter but with shipping it was over twice the cost of the WolfBox mount.

Lastly I ordered the direct mount kit (ie remove OEM mirror, install G900) but then discovered that Honda uses a twist mount while the WolfBox mount expects a wedge mount. I did discover that the GPS puck was perfectly happy tucked between the headliner and the roof making its installation a bit easier. I upgraded to a Samsung 256GB C10 U3 SD card which is fully support despite some confusion in the documentation.

I chose to hardwire the unit so as to gain the park monitoring functionality as well as making for a more professional installation.

I wound up buying the WolfBox anti-glare film which resolves that issue at a very slight loss of display image crispness. I also found that when using the G900 in rear cam mode, the semi-mirrored surface caused undesired ghost rear reflections that were confusing as they were at the infinity focus. It is not that massive an adjustment but it took some getting used to. One unexpected mental adjustment was that with a real rear view mirror, your eyes are basically focused at infinity much the same as looking forward with driving but when using the G900 in rear view cam mode, your focus has to change to the distance to the mirror. The G900 functioning as a REAL rear view mirror (ie display off or in screen saver mode) work far better than I expected, but that defeats the field of view improvement. This is wonderful for eliminating blind spots caused by the rear C-pillars but it also throws off your distance judgement honed from years of a regular rear view mirror. The 1st thing is the field of view is SO much wider (150 degrees) than a normal rear view mirror. As for using it as a rear view mirror, it takes some mental gymnastics, at least initially. The display is bright and crisp and the 25fps rate is sufficient to maintain the illusion of realtime video. I recently purchased and installed the WolfBox G900 (ie 4K front, 2.4K rear, smart touch screen with WDR, night vision, GPS, 65GB SD card) mirror dash cam that you are considering.
