Fixing my Dashcam

Bet there is, particularly with the better
ones that the average thief should be
able to work out easily with it so visible.
(I'm not going to be routinely parking my car in Liverpool's backstreets)
IMO it makes more sense to have one that
can be completely invisible so that if you
are the cause of the accident, there is no
need to say anything about it at that time.
The problem is that most of these cams are black and if the usually
light-coloured sun visor is down, they stand out like a sore thumb. Many
cars have good-quality video cams in them for speed sign reading, etc
these days, so it is a pity that the manufacturers don't put in a USB
connection for simple video recording to an SDHC card, or just an SDHC
socket with built-in overwriting software when the card is full.
