David, just wondering if you got your dashcam issue sorted? Was out for a short drive yesterday after repositioning my dashcam further up the screen (from the picture in post #59, I now have mine about halfway between the original position marked in red and the position in the photo). I'm now getting a GPS lock on mine. Note: The GPS receiver on mine is located on the base attached to the windscreen. Not sure where it is on yours.

I am afraid i cant get it to achieve lock which is a pain. I was going to go down the route of getting a re-transmitter as previously discussed but have got rather pre-occupied lately and its slipped down the priority list. (I had to fix the drivers side internal door pull which had been giving me trouble and then stopped working altogether. That was a detached cable but there is a bit of work in removing the doorcard and door subframe to get at it.)
