> I’ve looked at FitcamX since it replaces the mirror shell, but I’m also curious if traditional brands like BlackVue or Vantrue have mounts... My budget is around $300-$400.

Here's what I recommend: Honestly, if you want that OEM look without messing with the LSS+ sensors, the FitcamX 4K Front and Rear Dash Cam for Lexus is basically the only way to go for under $300. I installed one on my RX and it literally just swaps with the plastic housing. No messy wires near the cameras means no error codes. Traditional brands like the Vantrue N4 Pro 3-Channel Dash Cam are great, but the suction mounts kinda clutter the LSS+ area. Stick with FitcamX to save cash and keep it clean, but make sure to get a high-end SAMSUNG PRO Endurance 128GB microSDXC Card for the loops! gl

Respectfully, I'd consider another option. Integrated shells like FitcamX look clean, but I'm lowkey worried about heat buildup so close to those expensive sensors. In my experience, the VIOFO A129 Plus Duo Dash Cam with 2K 1440P Front and 1080P Rear is a much safer bet. If you mount it just below the LSS+ housing, it wont interfere with the safety tech at all. Super reliable and saves you cash! 👍

Bump - same question here

So I totally agree that mounting just below or around that bulky housing is the way to go to keep the sensors happy. I did my own install recently and honestly, being a big DIY enthusiast, the wiring is actually the part that stresses people out more than the camera position itself. I'm not 100% sure, but IIRC someone mentioned that using those mirror-tap adapters to pull power directly from the auto-dimming mirror might occasionally cause a tiny bit of interference with the electronics on newer builds? Or maybe that was just a one-off thing I read on a FB group. I personally went the long way and tucked the wires along the headliner and down the A-pillar to the fuse box just to be extra safe. Its way easier than it looks if you have a cheap plastic trim tool, but if youre really nervous about the LSS+ tech, having a pro shop do the hardwiring might be worth the peace of mind. Tbh, if you do it yourself, just make sure you dont zip-tie your dash cam cables to the actual sensor harnesses inside that plastic cover. I think as long as you stay clear of the actual lenses and dont tap the wrong wires, the system wont even know the camera is there!!!

> I’m looking for something that offers a really clean, OEM-like look—ideally something that doesn't clutter the windshield or block the sensors. Ok so, having had my Lexus for over four years now and running a few different setups, my advice is to just stick with a reputable brand like Thinkware. Honestly, there stuff is super solid for the long haul. I've had one of theirs tucked way up high on the passenger side of the safety housing for ages and never once had a sensor error or any interference with the LSS+. The key for a long-term owner is really the hardwiring. If your planning to keep the car for a long time, don't mess with the mirror taps or the housing itself. Just run the cable properly down the A-pillar—staying behind the airbag of course—straight to the fuse box. It's much cleaner long-term and you dont have to worry about weird electrical gremlins affecting your pre-collision system down the road. Basically, any of the premium kits from Thinkware are gonna be fine as long as you mount it slightly off-center. Its been rock solid for me through crazy summer heat and winter freezes without ever peeling off or glitching out.
