NEED a Front & Rear Dashcam for a Porsche Macan EV GTS in UK.

I have been informed that Hardwiring can effect the warranty if the car has an electric issue related to the install.
Plug & Play suggested, using 12v socket and not 230v Socket.

SUGGESTIONS please.

I went with the fitcamx because they design it to look like the OEM mirror so there's no camera jutting out or stuck onto the windshield making you look like an Uber driver. Got the front and rear and happy with it. There are better quality cameras out there, but for me, the tradeoff of the integrated design was worth it.

The FitCamX is the right choice, because you won't see it. There are cameras a year or two newer but they are big and ugly and you have to mess with wires, and the 4k of the fitcam is good enough.

Maybe since Brexit? In both the EU and US, the warranty won't be affected unless you literally fuck it up during install/usage, and the regulators are good about taking manufacturers to task if they blame a third party needlessly.

But the cool thing with the FitCamX is that nobody will even realize it's installed. I grounded my last car lease with one already in there, and the inspection didn't even mention it. (Generally they will not like third party installs on lease returns)
