There's a reason dual-camera dash cams have become one of the fastest-growing car accessories in Ireland over the past few years. A front-facing camera alone tells half the story. The Car Camera DVR979G tells the whole story. With a full HD front camera and a dedicated rear camera working together, this dash cam captures everything happening around your vehicle simultaneously, giving you complete, 360-degree peace of mind every time you hit the road. Whether you're a daily commuter, a long-distance driver, or someone who's simply had one too many close calls on Irish roads, the DVR979G is the kind of upgrade that makes you wonder why you waited so long.
The DVR979G records in full HD quality on both channels, meaning the footage from both the front and rear cameras is crisp, clear, and detailed enough to be genuinely useful when you need it most. Timestamps, GPS data, and impact detection work together to create a complete record of every journey. The wide-angle lens on the front camera captures multiple lanes of traffic, while the rear camera keeps an eye on tailgaters, reversing incidents, and anything else happening behind you. For anyone who has ever been involved in a rear-end collision—or nearly been—having that rear footage can be the difference between a successful insurance claim and an expensive dispute.
Installation is simpler than most people expect. The DVR979G is designed to be mounted cleanly on your windshield with the rear camera cable routed discreetly along the headliner and down to the back window. Once it's set up, it powers on automatically with your ignition and starts recording without any manual input required. Continuous looping records allow the memory card to work effectively by automatically deleting the oldest record if there is not enough space. Impact detection allows the locking of vital files that will be impossible to overwrite in order to give you additional security in case of emergencies.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, this is basically the most important function of the DVR979G compared to single-channel dash cam units. The fact that the two cameras can record simultaneously is what makes it so special. The footage from both channels is stored together on a single MicroSD card, timestamp-synced for easy review.
It's more involved than a single-camera setup, but it's absolutely manageable as a DIY installation. The rear camera cable runs from the front unit along the headliner across the roof, down the rear pillar, and to the back windscreen. Many drivers find that the cable can be tucked neatly into the rubber trim around the doors and windows, keeping it completely hidden from view. The result looks clean and professional.
The DVR979G rear camera usually has the option to choose whether to show the image of the camera either in mirrored mode or standard mode depending on the settings on the camera. In mirrored mode, the view is more useful when used as the rearview monitor of the car, as it is in line with your expectations. The standard mode is good for viewing the recording of what happened behind the car.
Yes, recording rear-end incidents is what the rear camera is meant for. Incidents like tailgating, rear-end collisions, cars that come from behind, and even reverse incidents are recorded well using the rear camera. This is done together with the G-sensor that automatically locks the file of the incident as soon as it happens.
Yes. When reverse gear is engaged (with the appropriate connection made during hardwire installation), many dual-camera setups, including the DVR979G, automatically switch the screen to display the rear camera feed, functioning as a reversing aid. This is a genuinely useful additional benefit beyond the dash cam's core recording function.
Yes. Loop recording of the DVR979G is normal and continues to overwrite old recordings when the memory card becomes full. On the other hand, the G-Sensor locks up the video files when it detects sudden braking, fast turning, or collision. The locked files cannot be overwritten and stay on the memory card until manually deleted.
The front camera records in Full HD to capture forward-facing detail like license plates and road signs at a distance. The rear camera typically records at a slightly lower resolution, which is standard across dual-channel dash cams and still provides more than sufficient detail for capturing incidents directly behind the vehicle at close range.
The DVR979G is designed for year-round reliability in typical driving conditions, including the wet, cold weather Irish drivers experience for much of the year. The operating temperature range covers both winter frost and the heat build-up that can occur inside a parked car. The camera itself is interior-mounted, so direct rain exposure is not a concern.
The storage time varies according to the size of your MicroSD card. A 64GB card will usually allow about 6-8 hours of storage of dual-channel HD video until the loop record starts to overwrite the older videos. A 128GB card will allow double that amount of time.
The DVR979G works in a way that makes it almost unnecessary to interact with it every day. It turns itself on and starts recording with the help of the ignition, takes care of storage with loop recording, secures the necessary files automatically using the G-Sensor, and shuts down on its own when you turn off the car.
Yes. Footage is stored on the MicroSD card, which you can remove and insert into a card reader connected to your laptop or PC. Many drivers keep a MicroSD card adapter in their glove box for exactly this purpose. Footage files are standard MP4 format, which can be viewed, copied, and shared using any standard media player or file browser.
For the modest additional cost of a dual-channel system, the extra protection is absolutely worth it. A significant proportion of road incidents — including rear-end collisions, hit-and-run incidents in car parks, tailgating disputes, and reversing accidents — happen behind the vehicle. A front-only camera simply cannot capture these events. The DVR979G gives you complete, all-around documentation that a single camera can never provide.
