Why hardwire a dashcam instead of using the cigarette socket?

A hardwired dashcam draws power directly from the fuse box and can be set up for parking mode — recording while the car is off. Plug-in power cuts when you turn the ignition off, and a trailing cable is unsightly and easy to snag.

Can you fit front and rear cameras?

Yes. We route the rear camera cable through the headlining and door rubber for a clean finish. Front and rear dual-channel systems give you full coverage for insurance purposes both while driving and when parked.

Will a dashcam fitting affect my car's warranty?

A professional hardwire installation using a fuse tap — not cutting or splicing wires — will not void your manufacturer warranty. We fit using correct fuse tap connectors and earth to a factory earth point.
