Default Dash Camera Recommendations

Just bought a 1LT which does not have a PDR. What are recommendations for a 360 dash camera for the C8, preferably one which does not need to be hard wired?

I should have noted that I haven't tried any of these, & have car optioned with PDR. Good luck! Dashcam is a must have in my view.

If I decide to buy one (for my SUV), this will likely be my choice:

I have 2 of these dash cameras. The work very good and I can use the app on my phone to see past video's. They mount really nice up high to the right side of the rear view mirror. A 256GB card works well with them. I have mine hard wired along the headliner and down the right A pillar. I then tucked the wire along the edge of the top right dash and plugged it into the accessory lighter port under the glove box.

Get whatever you like, Viofo or Blackvue are awesome but offer much different options. I have a Viofo 139 Pro but wish I had bought a Blackvue with the cloud. I used hooked mine up with a Powercell 8 lithium battery plugged into the cigarette lighter, works awesome for parking mode as I did not want to worry about power from the car battery. Go to blackboxmycar.com and research your options.
