Speed camera locator
GPS mirror is spot on
Finally... a camera locator that does away with cable clutter and doesn’t need to be stuck to your windscreen! Meet the SpeedCheetah GPS Mirror Driver Safety System.
Unit attaches easily to your existing rear view mirror
By Simon McBride
24th December 2007
It simply clips over the rear view mirror, and can be adjusted via spring-loaded clamps. Fitting is relatively easy – all you have to do is position the power cable around the screen and door trim rubber, and into the cigar lighter.
Once the device locates a speed camera, warnings are provided by a series of beeps, and the mirror itself displays your speed, as well as the prevailing limit – the alerts stop when your speed drops below it. There is also an overspeed mode which lets you know if you are going faster than your pre-set limit. The mirror has an anti-glare coating, and the fact that it can be discreetly mounted means that it’s unlikely to attract the attention of thieves.
While the unit is virtually flawless and less fiddly than screen-mounted locators, you pay for the convenience – the SpeedCheetah is up to three times the price of some rivals. Bearing this in mind, try before you buy, especially as the set-up is wider than most standard mirrors and may impede the sun visors on some cars.
