Dash camera.

tim, I never previously wanted a dash cam, until a driver reversed into my stationary car, then blamed me.
it took two years to resolve this so I will always have a dash cam fitted in my car.

Just installed a NextBase 512G, available from Amazon & Halfords etc. Plug and play, needs a memory card - 32Gb will give a 4hour recording loop.
Software for downloading and viewing on a CD in the box, good pictures, map and speed readout.

sounds like a good cam, I went back to my 5 year old blackvue, the best out of three cams that ive had.

I was looking at one of these. How did you go about wiring it up?

That 512G is a very good camera, great pictures, but it is still "on view" ,on the windscreen. I'd like a camera that is discrete, and can stay in the car. Anybody ? Thanks.

tucked wire under window trim and door rubber seal, under carpet and along seat to power socket.

Oh great.  No need to tear the car apart then, neat!

Thanks very much.
