I use the Garmin mini dash cam (don’t remember exact name) and it works great too. Used it for multiple incidents and never had any issues. Doesn’t record when power is off however
You can easily run the 12v (cigarette outlet plug) to the back by tucking the cable under the window trim. Mine tucks in right above my rearview, and then runs all the way to the back. Takes 5 minutes! If the cam you buy doesn't have a long enough cable you may need to buy a separate one that's long enough, but I think my Garmin Mini came with a long enough cable.
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 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.
