When you invest in a quality truck like a GMC Sierra, you want to protect it—and yourself—on the road. That’s exactly what one of our customers had in mind when they came to Next Level for a professional dash cam installation. We outfitted their Sierra with front and rear-facing BlackVue dash cameras, giving them complete 360-degree coverage and peace of mind every time they hit the road.
Why Dash Cams Are Essential for Modern Drivers
Dash cams have become more than just a nice-to-have accessory—they’re essential protection for drivers who want to:
- Document accidents and incidents with clear video evidence
- Protect against insurance fraud and false claims
- Monitor their vehicle even when parked (with parking mode)
- Capture unexpected moments on the road
- Improve driving habits by reviewing footage
For truck owners especially, having both front and rear coverage is critical. Whether you’re towing, backing up in tight spaces, or navigating busy highways, you need eyes everywhere.
Why We Chose BlackVue for This Installation
BlackVue is one of the most trusted names in dash cam technology, and for good reason. Their cameras offer:
- Superior video quality with Full HD or 4K resolution options
- Cloud connectivity for remote viewing and notifications
- Parking mode that monitors your vehicle 24/7
- Built-in GPS for location and speed tracking
- Sleek, discreet design that doesn’t obstruct your view
- Dual-channel recording for simultaneous front and rear coverage
For this GMC Sierra, we installed BlackVue’s dual-channel system to ensure complete coverage from every angle.
The Installation Process: Professional and Clean
At Next Level, we don’t just slap a camera on your windshield and call it a day. Our team takes pride in delivering professional, factory-quality installations that look like they came with the vehicle.
Front Camera Placement
The front-facing camera was mounted behind the rearview mirror, positioned for optimal road coverage without obstructing the driver’s view. This placement captures:
- The full road ahead
- License plates of vehicles in front
- Traffic signals and road signs
- Lane markings and road conditions
Rear Camera Placement
The rear-facing camera was strategically mounted to capture everything behind the Sierra, including:
- Vehicles approaching from behind
- Backup situations and parking lot incidents
- Tailgaters and aggressive drivers
- Rear-end collision evidence
Professional Wiring
Here’s where professional installation really matters. We carefully routed all wiring through the vehicle’s interior panels, headliner, and trim—completely hidden from view. No dangling wires, no tape, no mess. The result is a clean, OEM-quality finish that maintains your Sierra’s interior aesthetics.
We also hardwired the system to the vehicle’s electrical system, enabling:
- Parking mode that activates when motion is detected
- Continuous power without draining the battery
- Automatic recording when the vehicle starts
The Benefits of Professional Installation
Sure, you could buy a dash cam online and try to install it yourself. But here’s what you get with a professional installation from Next Level:
✅ Expert placement for optimal coverage and minimal visibility obstruction
✅ Clean, hidden wiring that looks factory-installed
✅ Proper hardwiring for parking mode and battery protection
✅ System testing to ensure everything works perfectly
✅ Professional setup of all camera settings and features
✅ Warranty protection and ongoing support

- For contractors and business owners: Document job site arrivals, protect against liability claims, and monitor your vehicle when parked at work sites
- For families: Keep an eye on teen drivers, capture road trip memories, and have evidence in case of accidents
- For daily commuters: Protect yourself from aggressive drivers, insurance scams, and hit-and-run incidents

At Next Level Orlando Custom Audio, we love working on all kinds of vehicles—from cutting-edge boats to classic muscle cars. This week, we had the pleasure of adding a little modern tech to a true American classic: a beautifully restored Oldsmobile 442 convertible.
Classic Style Meets Modern Safety
The Oldsmobile 442 is an icon of the muscle car era, known for its raw power, stylish lines, and pure driving experience. While the look and feel of a vintage car are timeless, we can all agree that modern safety and recording technology are worth having.
That’s why the owner of this 442 brought it in for a discreet dashcam installation. Our goal was to add protection and peace of mind without disrupting the vehicle’s vintage aesthetic.
Clean and Unobtrusive Installation
We mounted the dashcam neatly behind the rearview mirror, keeping wiring hidden and preserving the clean lines of the interior. The camera sits just out of the driver’s direct line of sight, capturing everything on the road ahead without drawing attention.
A dashcam in a classic car isn’t just about accident recording—it’s also a great way to capture scenic drives, car show parades, and once-in-a-lifetime moments behind the wheel of such a rare machine.
Appreciating the Details
While we were installing the dashcam, we couldn’t help but admire the immaculate interior of this 442—complete with color-matched floor mats, retro gauges, and a gorgeous blue vinyl finish. This car is clearly loved and cared for, and now it’s ready to cruise with the added benefit of high-definition recording.
Upgrade Your Ride—Classic or Modern
Whether you drive a modern vehicle or a vintage collector’s piece, Next Level can help integrate the latest tech without compromising style. From dashcams and sound systems to marine electronics and custom fabrication, we’ve got the expertise to take your ride to the next level.
