I have a Blackvue DR900X Plus. Does ok as sometimes plate numbers are hard to read, and the "Plus" brings a rear facing cam as well. I have had it for a few years and it was installed in the Wrangler I had before.

I have the BlackVue DR900x plus. There are newer models 970x. I have the came paired with 3 battery packs hardwired to the interior fuse box for rapid charging. They keep the cam powered for 55+ hours when parked (most important part for me). Also got an old t-mobile portable hotspot (cool pad) added 2G/$10/per month plan. More than enough when going out for work shopping etc. At home the can connect home WiFi and records until battery dies. Happy so far.

when you say interior are you thinking of NOT having a rear cam? I assume you do not in which case you need a 3-cam system. Blackvue has the best low-profile that I know of but I had issues with their lousy/unresponsive support so had to go with one that has a screen. ended up with a 2-cam viofo and it’s a lot lower profile than I anticipated…fits pretty well behind my 2014 Accord mirror. you can turn the screen off completely and use the app - which is what I do since the screen is tucked up behind the mirror (the screen can be turned off/on by voice command which is nice). but yes…you need 3-cam which will run you a bit more!

I've had a Blackvue DR900X 2-channel (front and rear) for years. Had it hardwired into my M235i, pulled it out when I traded that in for my i4, and have been using it in the i4 for almost 3 years. I haven't hardwired it in to the i4 because I've been super lazy so I've only been using the front camera, and the 12v outlet. Whatever I get when this lease ends in May next year will get it hardwired in front and rear again. The picture quality is great, and although I used to really hate the app, they have made improvements recently that have made it better. I've also heard great things about Viofo dashcams, but have never used one.

I’m running the BlackVue 900X 2 channel running on a external battery so that it will continue to record while it’s parked. 4k front video & 1080p rear

I have it wire to an external battery. The external battery only pulls power from the car when I drive. When in park mode the dash cam will run & pull power off the external battery. Once the external battery dies the dash cam will just stop recording. My memory chip is 125 so the camera will rewrite over the older footage after about 11 hours

I have a DR900X 2 channel with an external battery in my 2025 Sport. BlackVue is not cheap but in 5 years and 2 cars I've never had an issue.

I had a BlackVue 2 channel in my 2019 Sport and moved it to my 2025 Sport when I traded for it. The camera was hardwired in both cases. If you entertain the idea of a parking camera get a separate battery for the camera. You'll get better recording life.
