335i single turbo,
After owning a black vue camera, I would not suggest it. It went bad right when the warranty expired. I googled my issue and found a lot of people were having the same issues.

Most cameras dont last and i had heaps of different ones

I brought the mustang one as its oem fitment and to see how long it will last

The best one to date i found to be a cheap ebay one that lasted 3 years and still going, Its the gw1 series, ive been using them in my trucks and cranes without fail

So if your after a reliable and dont mind the ugly look its the only one in my books

I use a GoPro, but to be honest it isn't a very good dashcam setup. I just use it because I also use the camera on my motorbike and other hobbies, so it makes sense to have just one. Plus, 780p? What is this 1991? I prefer 4k.

So apparently I jinxed myself. GoPro died about a week ago. It has a couple different errors depending on which battery you try, but none of the 4 batteries I try work. Since I already have all of the accessories, I'll probably replace it with another one, but going used this time.

I use a Thinkware f770 with a fuse tap to allow for parking mode. Running for about 4 months now and only get a low battery on occasion when i sit in the car doing nothing for forever. However the low battery might be because it is the oem battery(5-6 years old), about time i replaced it.
