Side mirror cameras location

[Old Spice]

Never noticed the placement of the side mirror cameras until seeing this photo. Pretty cool that it's on the fender, but that will probably require frequent cleaning considering its location so close to the wheels/tires.

These cameras are for Autopilot and can be used for mirrors as well. Other Tesla Models have them integrated in the side turn lights without any problem.

Ah, makes sense to integrate the two!

Autopilot has currently 8 cameras that are used for sentry mode, back up camera, light sensor, rain sensor other than all the ADAS.

I was trying to find more information on removing the side mirrors.. and found this: https://www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.d.../13640-sidevisibilityreport_102518_v3-tag.pdf

It's from 2018, with an audi a4.. reading through this has given me hope that Tesla can satisfy them and finally remove mirrors

Looks like a go pro for filming purposes. It is very common in car videos.
