I had a Blackview on my previous car, and have bought the latest model this time around for my Macan (husband also has the same on his Taycan and ford Ranger). I'd definitely recommend them over the standard Porsche offering.
It is. It’s yet to be installed purely because I only got the car 10 days ago and need to find time to book it in with our usual installer.
This should not be a problem with the prewired camera option. It is very likely that the macan is the same setup as in this taycan post which then gives you ACC that your camera can leverage to enter parking mode (and thus not drain the battery).
Yes it sounds like the people who has the prewired option has a simpler way to hard wire a Dashcam with parking mode by creating a harness of some sort. The people who don't have the pre-wire option (unfortunately me) may have a more difficult time. As noted in a previous post of mine, it sounded like there are some examples of installers being able to do it without the prewire options but some of the details are lacking.
I'll feed back once mine has been installed in January. The UK spec Macan comes pre-wired so I'm hoping it will be easy enough. I didn't have any issues with the Blackview draining the battery of my etron, so I'm hoping for the same on the Macan.
This is Gold! Now if we could also get a document for "0871900 Removing and installing trim panel for rear lid" so that I don't break one of the clips that would be great haha.
Thank you very much for posting this. I'm guessing the fuse in the passenger side footwell is always on (being that the overhead harness has a switched 12v and an always on 12v) and there is a relay somewhere after. I'm testing with a multimeter as we speak.
