Frequently Asked Questions

Does my BlackVue dashcam need this GPS module?

If your BlackVue model is listed in compatibility (DR970X Plus II, DR970X Plus, DR590X Plus, DR970X Box series, or DR590X) and lacks built-in GPS, you'll need this module to enable speed and location tracking features.

Can I install this myself?

Yes, installation is straightforward—plug the Micro USB connector into your dashcam's GPS port and position the antenna with adhesive mounting. The extended cable provides flexibility for optimal placement without requiring professional installation.

Does the GPS module record my location on every trip?
