Dash Cam Mini 2

I use the Mini 2 with Dongar on both of my cars.

I have garmin mini 2 with dongle to plug it into mirror 

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 have the Garmin Mini 2 in my 911 and my daily Jeep. Behind the mirror and out of my view, so it works well.

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.

I use the garmin mini 2 and the dongar adapter to power it from the mirror like this is. Seems like a decent option
