I have the VIOFO VS1 Mini 2K because is so discreet. It's behind the rear view mirror.

VIOFO vs1 mini paired with FITDVR wiring kit to take power from the front radar sensor. Seamlessly blends into the rear view mirror shroud, and the small form factor of the actual dash cam helps it to hide right by the mirror

Donger power adapter tap into rear view mirror and Viofo. [Here is my thread on the install.](https://www.reddit.com/r/wrx_vb/s/wovNnMaZqL) [This LINK](https://static.oemdtc.com/AccessoryInstallationGuide/H501SVC000.pdf) shows you how to take your mirror apart to access the plug. (EDIT: it is just plastic with clips and pries/pops apart with a thin dash tool, it seems finicky and then busts apart and is not nearly as fragile as I thought.) I used a 10-pin adapter from [Dongar ](https://dongar.tech/)(contact them), this [Dash Cam Kit](https://www.amazon.com/%E3%80%90Bundle-Dashcam-STARVIS-Sensor-Control/dp/B0D62Z6DMM/ref=pd_ci_mcx_mh_mcx_views_0?pd_rd_w=CyHdu&content-id=amzn1.sym.352fa4e9-2aa8-47c3-b5ac-8a90ddbece20%3Aamzn1.symc.40e6a10e-cbc4-4fa5-81e3-4435ff64d03b&pf_rd_p=352fa4e9-2aa8-47c3-b5ac-8a90ddbece20&pf_rd_r=KAX6CN2QBKKR7NC9VDEW&pd_rd_wg=OQdsk&pd_rd_r=64ebb5c4-e53a-449b-b821-0d49b0e7f478&pd_rd_i=B0D62Z6DMM), and this [256GB SD Card](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P4HBRMV?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details). Make sure to get one for 24+ with eyesight (mine was a 23). I also used this shorter right-angled [90-degree USB-C to USB-A cable](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08MX84FT4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1). The rest was just cable management. I also hid the actual adapter block in the roof so it’s not visible.

VIOFO VS1 as tiny as it gets very lightweight, but good quality

I got the VS1 for 500 from the official brand HERE on this subreddit! They gave me a free filter with it too which was like 100 dhs alone lol The camera is amazing, had it for a year now, never failed me and very easy to setup and use. Highly recommend. Edit: u/ViofoUAE is the username
