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.
Had garmin mini 2 and 3 for a while and the quality is decent enough for me. Plates are not as readable as I'd like them to be but I like the smallness of it.
Yea it's good enough to show what happened if something happens. I'm getting 2nd mini 2 one for the back cos I'm not liking how close people pull up behind on lights.
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.
