Street Guardian - SG9663DCPRO+

I have the Viofo A229 Pro 4k (too big), the Red Tiger 4k (it died 5 months in), the Vantrue N3 (died after 10 months), and I bought a Street Guardian - very similar to the Viofo. It lasted the longest but it's too big for the windshield. Most of the above beep or talk way too much (RedTiger model chatters way too much), not to mention two of them died within a year. All were hard-wired. I'm going to try the Garmin because I don't want a screen but I've heard the resolution isn't great compared to some others. It shouldn't be this hard to find a dashcam with no screen, high resolution (front and rear) and a product that lasts longer than 10 months.

I've had Street Guardians running for 6 years now in two cars in Texas. AFAIK Viofo has a lot in common with the SG, though at a much lower price. Get the samsung endurance cards. Never had one break yet. Prior to that they would break every 6-12 months or so.

I got a Street Guardian dash cam and had it installed (wires hidden behind trim and wired into the fuse box) for less than what an OEM Toyota dash cam cost. Plus it's much smaller than the Toyota dash cam and therefor is out of sight.

I have two cars and have Street Guardian cameras in both. They are fantastic and one camera is about 7 years old. You do have to replace the sd card yearly or every 15k miles, get one that’s dash cam rated, and make sure the camera POV is under the windshield wipers. The only problem I had is the power source dying but that was my fault.
