What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are inconsistent: one field lists a 160-degree field of view while another gives 140 degrees, and claims of a 3-inch LCD conflict with a stated 3-inch screen size lacking a clear unit. The listed 16 GB storage and included 16 GB card are not clearly distinguished. Parking mode requires a hardwire connection. Check the exact selected package and detector fit, since Passport X80 requires an optional bracket and feedback also mentions mount compatibility concerns.
