Plugged in a Garmin dash cam mini 2 using a short cable matters USB-C to Mini-USB cable. Worked well for recording with the car on. Later bought the Garmin OBD2 always on dongle.
I went for a Garmin Dash Mini 2 because it's discreet, doesn't get in the way of vision, and the data can be extracted easily. Fancier dash cams exist but it's all I need.
A Garmin Dash Mini is less than £100, then plus installation if you want to hard wire it. It's cheaper because it doesn't have a screen. But videos are still visible via the app and memory card. It's also very small and fits nearly behind the mirror.
I’ve had two of the Mini 2’s die on me, I don’t know why but they stopped recording and then wouldn’t sync unless I’d do a hard reset, then they’d crap out after a few weeks. Go with a full size one.

Great video & easy install, but app and SD card issues.
