Front camera has to be connected to rear camera by cable, so little extra work to hide it under panles/carpets, but cable is long enough, 6 metres.

is the cable supplied?

I am very interested in this camera!

cheeers (Lazada at present) 1,499 each.

thank you

Does your tracking number end in 1590?

Hi/.

No my tracking number ends with 0020

as you mention they send them all separately!

Hopefully can pick up next week, along with Embassy letter to go to immigration (before the July rush) and transfer over stamp!

I hope everyone gets sorted soon!

Hi All/. People still waiting for your passport to be issued from March still/.

I emailed the UK today at Liverpool CSLT referrals for find out what is going off now over my new passport! I didn't mix my words, I am totally <deleted> off with them!

No responses, replies back with decent information in the pass 3 months! 

I have just received a reply back (wow) they are speaking to us now!

I said earlier the problem was not with Bangkok VFS office, but UK passport office stopping work all along.

Reply/. My new passport has been issued now 2 days ago and is on its way back now!

VFS Bangkok will inform you soon for collection!

I was going to go to VFS next Monday anyway and demand answers and find out what was happening? Maybe I can go and get my new passport now! 

Hurray finally!

I hope you all get same information shortly as well!

Cheers

Hi 

So where are our new passports now?

Back in the UK or here?

I hope they will contact us finally soon, to collect our new passports (after an 8 week delay).

This is totally not an acceptable way to deal with Paying members of the British public.

Let's c how many weeks to wait now!

Hi/.

one thing i have found my SUV seems to run far better on gasohol 91 considerably always. When i use E20 though even cheaper my SUV runs slower, not so much power?

I prefer to use 91 gasohol always if available, if not use E20 and i prefer Shell fuel.

cheers

Hi there/.

I hope when they finally issue our new outstanding passports this year?

That they are dated from the date finally issued date?

NOT the applied for date, otherwise we lose again? I bet they don't care either about this, we lose because the passport office delay not ours!

Let's c?

But if they go wrong???????

I bought an air conditioner recently through Lazada! Hisense! very good prices now! 18,500 BTU 16k inverter type. 

Hisense is Chinese, but guess everything nowadays made in China.

They had free fitting, delivery and fitted 3 days later. Have helpline now.

they are the only company to offer 3 years warranty (unit inside) 10 years compressor!

I am very happy! - worth a try! 

Hi/.

Yes it is 7 weeks today, i should have collected my new passport now!

Still waiting!

and nothing has been done yet? communication is zero? no help provided!

paid my money and received nothing! only excuses! from Passport offices!

If your passport will expire before a solution has been agreed you will need to consider returning to UK to renew your passport.

How? walk back to the UK? aren't the airports closed?

surely the Passports offices already know this? are they that dum?

Why o Why? does anybody go to this Ford Dealer in Pattaya?

I have seen/heard nothing but complaints about this dealer on this forum + others about this dealership? for the past 4 years or so!  (Don't you guys learn?).

you can book your car in at any other Ford dealer , wait 30 minutes about for a service (wash) and drive away happy! - just wait for service easy!

It's not Ford that,s got the bad name in Thailand! only certain dealerships!

I use my local Ford dealership in Bangkae and have received only excellent service from them always, so helpful. (5 years now)! their service exceeds even the Ford service i got back when i lived back in the UK. 

I just paid my electric bill "the same not cheaper previous months rate?"

on the bottom of the bill showed previous rates/charges lower!

But i was charged the full amount! - ? so wrong information again!

You have to run wires to the back cam or is it wireless like some RV cams....

Yes you have run the wires through the car, from the camera! 

quite easy to do? i mounted mine inside the back window, rather than outside low down!

Quote: As Transam mentioned: so far its seems to keep working ok!

If you want to spend thousands on an expensive camera please do so! cameras seemed to have improved a lot recently! touch screen, no batteries some now + metal cases, even remote! what next?

Best advice - get a camera fitted! don't drive without one!

cheers

I bought this one off Lazada same 2018!

https://www.lazada.co.th/products/4-hd-1080p-wdr-hdr-2parking-monitor-30-fhd-1080p-4k-hd-1-car-dvr-camera-32g-i824394527-s1688248087.html?spm=a2o4m.searchlist.list.1.2ced3847cKc2gS&search=1

Has  rear camera now, which is better (can double up as reverse camera) + 170 degree angle lens! touch screen now! better - metal case seems improvement + battery seems better now - than previous! ones i've had.

under 1,000 baht still going! can replace cheap enough if problems!

records front + back, my insurance gave me a discount also!

I cant see the point buy expensive, when you can replace then cheaply and easily  nowadays!

He Blamed another driver? passing him? why?

So you know it's been done properly for one. Main agents can't even inflate tyres to the correct pressure. Ecosport should be 28 front 30 rear, Usually it comes with various pressures all around anything from 30 to 35 plus.

I guess you are referring to a Ford Dealer in Pattaya?

They are all not as bad as this dealership? I have been having excellent service with my Ford Dealer in Bangkae! Even better service than i ever had in the past with my UK Ford Dealers were when i lived in the Uk!

I own an Ecosport and very happy with it? would like to upgrade to latest model! but not available in Thailand yet?

Ford Dealers in Bangkae offer every 3 months clean, wash, wax  and mop paint work for 400 baht! up to 5 years old!. It;s like new again at a great price!

don't tar all Ford Dealers please with the same brush?

communication is normally the problem, why people get so angry and complain!

Happy customer!

Hi there/.

I have the same problem now also, i am going into hospital for major surgery? soon total HIP replacement. booked already.

I am staying in hospital for 5 days? How can i report to immigration after being released from hospital? cant walk properly 4/5 weeks?

Do they want me to go immigration by ambulance? after release from hospital?

There must be some sense? in this TM30 reporting for these type of things?

Hi there/.

I am now so confused? with this change?

I am on a Non O visa now (due for extension in July) based upon taking care of my Mixed Thai daughter?

Am i affected  now for purchasing insurance? mandatory yes or no?

what i.ve seen is OA visa's only for now?

please can you conform? help me?

thank you!

?  I think the C-HR Design Director should have said "jai yen, jai yen" to the team.  The brief seems to have been "include every design feature of every car built in the last 5 years".  It's like a four wheeled Yamaha Aerox.  But it's different and striking, so if you like the design - it's probably the best of the current small SUV crop.  CX3 and 5 look great - but small inside, and I think the OP wanted small exterior and practical interior - and that's the H-RV.

The C-HR is a new design body ok! But the engine technology is over 10 years old (out of date) same engines used from same as corrolla before? typical  of Toyota - where are the latest engines designs/updates? never happens!

If i had the choice? Ecosport

The CH-R look funky? but little space/room in the back? lack of feet/headroom - Ecosport best in size of all small SUV.

Ch-R The Engine comes out of the Corolla, same design spec 10 years ago - out dated! Toyota produce new models always same engines why?

I would wait for new Updated Model Ecosport or even Storm model (bigger engine) look great? maybe 2019 Launch?

does it have GPS navigation now?

No it does not still!

Still waiting updated Ecosport in Thailand? when? Most other countries have now updated model? no information when coming to Thailand. Update model will have Sync 3 - can run display phone maps through USB on display screen?

Why not use Sygic - best GPS app - small fee - runs through phone easy - best display/maps?

If you have inbuilt dash GPS exspensive 20-40k install and not up to date maps?
