Recently, I had the unfortunate event of someone side swiping me, destroying an HRE wheel, and rear bumper, see pic. He claimed I went into his lane. I've been driving over 36 yrs, never hit anyone or anything, and this tool hits me. I almost purchased a dash cam, too bad I didn't. So, got one for each of my cars. This one for my Mercedes:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
They are cheap, and this one, you can't see cause it's mounted behind the rear view mirror. If I had pulled the trigger and got one earlier, I wouldn't have had to pay my deductible, but it could have been much worse. Talk about an inexpensive mod that everyone should invest in...or else.

It's already fixed. Happened mid may. Too many clueless drivers in Hawaii.

Totally agree with OP, dash cams are inexpensive and can be very useful. I have two of these myself: http://www.buymobius.com/collections...supercapacitor

Small and contains a supercapacitor, powered with simple USB wire.

Indeed. That's why so many use them China and Russia to protect themselves.

Anyone have instructions on how to hardwire or at least how to conceal the wiring for a dash cam?
