Ok. Did some playing. I found an even better way to mount the front camera.
Instead of mounting it to the mirror mount, I added a 2" tab to the top of the camera, sticking out backwards.
Then I just slid it right under the headliner. Perfect.
Still some problems to work out. The cameras are just to damn sensitive and it's not compensating enough.
Couple notes.
Shot this morning about 6:30am. All vids are Divx encoded. You can normally see some glare from the dash, but even more noticable though the camera.
You can see in this first vid, how bright the headlights appear, even in daylight.

A couple minutes after these vids, it got very overcast and oddly enough, it kills the picture. Totally drowns it out. The next vid illustrates this. I'll have to play with some of the pins on the camera and expirement with the gain controls again.
The first few seconds are of my original (and expensive) SAVV backup cam. You can see how noisy and unbalanced the pic is at night.
