Dashboard camera recommendations?
Hi Group,
First post. I bought a m340i in late September. 6 days later I got into a nasty hit and run accident. Over 30k in damages, only 400 miles on the car. If I had a dash cam I could have at least caught the person who hit me. I'm looking to get a dash cam. I have all the packages, so one that will not get in the way of driver assistance/parking assist etc. I'm not looking to hard wire it into the car since it's a lease. Also parking protection would be awesome. Any suggestions? I found this one that looks pretty good. https://www.amazon.com/VAVA-3840X214...ct_top?ie=UTF8 Thanks in advance! |

I have Blackvue 2 channel and I really like it. It has a parking mode & wifi and etc. I am not sure what hard-wiring has to do with a lease. All of my leases had cameras and radar detectors hardwired. Super easy to pull them off before lease end. If you want parking protection you either have to hard-wire or get battery packs. Here is what I would recommend and you can do hours of research on BlackBoxMyCar, it is one of the best sites out there. https://www.blackboxmycar.com/collec...-dr750s-2ch-ir

Im using a Blackvue DR900S-1CH and while it's a little pricey I highly recommend it. Been using it for a while in my F30 and I'll be transferring it to my G20. Once hardwired in it's truly set and forget until you actually need it.
