I am deciding between the Viofo A229 Pro and VanTrue N4, I believe the Viofo has better reviews in regards to parking mode. Since this is my first car (that I have bought), I would like tips on how to hardwire the car. I have looked over a few resources such as:
- Dash Cam Installation Hub — BlackboxMyCar Canada
- Guide - 2nd Generation CX-9: Dashcam installation | Mazdas247 - guide posted here (was unsure if this had parking mode however also not connected to directly so not sure how that affects other usbs)
I would love to know what route to go about:
1. Install via Dongar Dashcam Power Adapter (this does not have parking mode) but is easy install next to rearview mirror
2. Hardwire install direct with fuse box
3. Install via ODB port (not sure how this affects car battery)
4. Use a battery pack (such as Cellink NEO Battery Pack - currently unavailable)
