VIOFO GPS Mount for The A129 Series Dash Cameras (A129 only, NOT for A229)

I have the VIOFO A129 Pro Duo 4K hard-wired in one of my cars, and it slowly started crapping out, like it wasn't getting power properly, then it finally died. I did some troubleshooting, and with the help of the guy who installed it, determined that the mount had died. He said that it wasn't something he sees a lot of, but you just never know with this tech stuff, especially being in a hot car for much of the day. I had had the camera for about 2 years at this point, so I guess we had a good run. Anyway, I had considered just replacing the whole camera so was happy that I could replace the mount so inexpensively. It was easy to mount myself where the old mount had been, and my camera clipped in just fine and started working like new again.

While these GPS mounts feel cheap it works with my A129 Pro so I can easily move it between vehicles. I wish they would use USB-C for the power though since it is smaller and can be plugged in either direction.

Just like the VIOFO GPS Mount that was in my wrecked vehicle.

I accidentally left the original when I sold my previous car so I was so glad I was able to just replace this part of the unit and it works perfectly like the original.

If you use this WITH THE HARDWIRE TO THE BATTERY, plug it into the the camera, not this base. Ours had issues when plugged into the base and would draw the battery down. Once we changed that, it's worked flawless.

It showed No GPS at the start so I updated the firmware of my dashcam to the latest version and it worked.

My car video system quit working and after much troubleshooting the GPS unit (which also distributes power) was bronken. Very grateful that this item is sold seperately as an inexpensive solution. Restored my $150 camera system.

I don't like giving a product a poor review because of sloppy shipping. This is a GPS unit that mounts to the back of a Viofo A129 dash cam and should be packaged with some care and evidently the good people at Amazon do not give a crap. This item came in a small zip lock bag and that was all, it was in a larger bag with two other items. If you view the pictures, you can see one of the mounts was not only smashed down but even twisted sideways, granted, Amazon did send me a replacement quickly. The second one arrived in the same kind of packaging with no protection, the only difference it was not damaged. As far as the product goes it works and does what it's supposed to.

Perfect it allowed me to move my dash cam between 2 vehicles

First GPS unit that came with camera malfunctioned after three months, just received replacement unit and camera will not even switch on. Double checked by plugging power directly to camera and all fine. Viofo may have a problem with their gps units, not good.
