MSW’s Take: Buy once, cry once when it comes to this system. We’ve tried numerous “consumer grade” systems that just don’t hold up to the race environment. We even tried a few that were specifically marketed as race rearview cameras that just didn’t work well. This mirror system is significantly brighter and clearer than other options on the market. Its fast refresh rate allows for higher realism, and keeps the driver’s focus on the road.
From Gentex, the leader in digital vision systems, comes the Gentex Type-R rearview mirror camera system made specifically for motorsports applications. This is the same system used by multiple LMP, GTLM, GT3 and other factory supported race teams.
