I've been looking at systems that have front and rear facing cameras that can hardwire into the fusebox, but not sure if there are simpler ways to do it. I don't want wires everywhere, so i'll be hiding most of them and want something that turns on/off with the vehicle (so no Go-Pros and the like).
Ive been through at least 10 different cameras and this is my current favorite and what I run front and rear
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072FGL63X/
It has all the basic requirements. Wide angle lens, capacitor not battery, good sony sensor, small and low profile mount, cheap.
It goes on sale for $50 pretty frequently. Keep an eye on slickdeals and set an alert.
Im not a fan of the 2 in one cameras . It doesn't save you any money over buying 2 separate and its a single point of failure. Even if you only have switched power in the front its still better IMO to run a wire to the back from the fusebox. Youre running a wire either way so the 2 in 1 cameras are no better with wires.
make sure you get an endurance rated sd card.
