cheap dash cam?
Whys that? I've never had an issue.
From under the dash - somehow fitted to a 12V supply and then up to the light cluster in the roof and out to the camera. I think it will require stripping the fascia off the frame and somehow removing the lighting cluster, getting from A to B will IMO be a challenge.
Nah, 5 min job. Tuck it in behind the head lining, and remove the 'A' pillar trim and place it behind there, the in behind the dash. Behind the dash part will probably be the most difficult.
Power lead on mine was ludicrously long most of it is coiled up under the passenger floor mat
How has everyone mounted theres?
Did it come with a dash/window mount?
Is it a USB power or 12v ciggy lighter one?

CAMERA ARRIVED!!!! 
It arrived last night and It was dark when I got home so I just briefly tested it by attaching it to the dog and making him do tricks
Works really well apart from the sound, which isnt a huge issue
Filmed my commute this morning too, really good quality and the battery lasted the whole journey
Will upload clips this weekend and post

I want one specially for a track day & drifting day and other driving events I'm doing soon so need decent quality and for it to last and record for 3 hours on battery.

The first about 2 hours, uses Nokia battery so you can buy some spares if you want, the other, my version is about 3 hours.
Okay, how do you mount the second on the windscreen? Would need to be quick though.

Gaffa tape in the bumper. Doesn't come with screen mounter (or at least I don't remember it doing so).
Don't want to gaffer tape to a Lamborghina or an Audi R8.
I think the first one might be best then with some spare batterys.
Dom
Ive got the second one, I just stick a phone cradle to the screen and clip it on with the supplied clip. Works a treat and you dont get too many wobbles or vibrations!

still tempted by this. http://www.ebuyer.com/342959-edimax...r-with-sd-card-slot-ip-network-camera-ic-3030 and paint it black i belive it could be attached to the windowscreen with very little noticability

It looks great quality but looks like it's refocusing every few seconds.

I know :/ its ok when its not too cloudy, it did focus on the sky for a fair bit so you would have noticed it more.I'm happy with the result though
