Do not buy for the parking function!

Camera, host, cables, connectors appear solid. Unfortunately I can't get the screen to work at the moment. And due to some issues with the make/model of my bike I will most likely be returning this before I get clearance. I made suggestions to the manufacturer. I'm worried about installing this host that works 24/7 unless you take a screwdriver and pry it off every time. I bought this version for the parking function but the host with battery and microSD port is not available on most bikes where anyone can get one. I have a packer and was hoping to lock the owner in my saddlebag. I'd rather not have too many screens to look at while driving, and the screen of what I see, how I see it, doesn't do me any good. When you buy this, please note: 1. The distance from the host to the handlebar is 75 cm (nearly 30 inches).2. The mounts appear to be permanent (i.e. you have to pull out a tool to remove the screen, which they call the host) and won't get you very far because of point 1 above. They are permanently attached.3. The power cord to the battery is quite long, and if you have an extra mode and don't mind draining the battery, that's good. My problem is 40cm/15.7" from host to power connector and the USB power line is 20cm/7.8" long. In my case I leave everything open. I believe there are other products including BlueSea that could be better for the price and what you actually get from the product. I have an HD Street Glide that I wanted to put on. . Others take care of some of my problems, maybe not theirs.
