Dashcams - anyone fitted any

[Pritch]

Has anyone done this either by themselves (is it easy ??) or had one fitted ?

Considering doing so but like to hear of other peoples experiences.

 

TIA

I stuck mine at the bottom of the screen in the middle,

it is powered from the cigarette lighter .

Mine has a nice long cable so I was able to hide it by pushing it into the joins on the dash, then ran it down behind the door jam and under the carpet, then up into the bottom of the glove box.

So my cable is just visible from the cigarette lighter and immediately disappears into the glove box.

 

Glove box still shuts ok without pinching the cable.
