You can get some the plug into the cig lighter or fuse panel with a fuse tap. If you do the fuse tap, do not tap an always-on fuse. You'll drain your battery. It's not hard to install, trickiest part is finding a place to run the wire if you don't want to take off any panels. I was able to just tuck the cable behind the trim though with no problem. I only have the front. Rear in my opinion isn't as important. Plus rear you can't take out nearly as easy to protect against theft. The front one I have has a quick release to quickly unmount it. But you can also get suction cup mounts that are easy to take off. I bought this one and it's been good so far.

and this is the power mgmt that monitors your battery while the car is turned off so it doesn't drain. You connect it directly to the fuse box with a fuse tap:

I've always had a front facing dash cam, the cheap kind, now I'm not skimping and getting one that will always be on. That one is new, has a great rating and records in 2K and uses a capacitor instead of a regular Lithium battery (that usually die because of extreme heat/cold)
The same company makes a well regarded dual camera system as well.
No problem, wanted to give you an update tho. I ended up going with an Opia2 because of all the great reviews it got. For me I was looking for the best quality image.
I also really like how you can swivel the camera around to any angle.
Hope you find what works best for you!
TBH not many people ask for it:
It also went up in price? annoyance level high. Good build quality, Good picture quality, lackluster park mode - fair assessment of it?
