My wife has a three year old Boxster and has asked if it's possible to have a Dash/car cam fitted to it without it looking intrusive on the windscreen.

My own car has one but it tucks nicely up behind the interior mirror and is very discreet both from a passengers and drivers point of view.

Looking at the interior mirror in her Boxster, it is more difficult to hide one and I am wondering if any other Boxster owners have a dash cam in their cars and if so what make/model did you buy please?

Thanks in anticipation.

I've got a Roadhawk HD on my Cayman. Just about fits behind the top left of the mirror. I'll try and grab some pics later.

I've one fitted in my Cayman it should be the same, it's a Mobius which is very small and discrete with excellent picture quality and sound.

They cost £50 from Banggood.eu and have second to none reliability, every part of it can be bought as spare parts so even if it does go wrong it's cheap to fix.

There is a big Mobius thread on DashcamTalk everything you need to know about Dashcams is on there.

And two even bigger threads on RCGroups the flying boys put them on their drones and quad copters...they swear by them.

I have a Blackvue.. Very discreet. Can't been seen from within cockpit as it tucks in behind the interior mirror.

I'm currently looking too. Having watched Techmoan's reviews on YouTube, this one seems the most unobtrusive...

Also looked at G1W-C, and the 08** series, but the B40/A118 looks the best combination of features.
There's a new version A119 due out soon: https://dashcamtalk.com/forum/threads/viofo-a119-c...

All 50 of Techmoan's reviews start here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elZ2Wq1ezFo&li...
