Best/Cleanest Dash Cam Setups?

[McRightclick]

Looking to get a front dash cam set up for my 26 Badlands (no auto dimming mirror), rear would be nice to have but not a necessity for me.

Is there a general consensus for the least obtrusive setup available, or are they all about the same? I don't plan to use all 6 auxiliary switch slots, can I wire in a 5V converter and draw straight from there?

I think the Mangoal can be used without having auto-dimmer and has a rear option. I don't believe any aux is required as it piggybacks off one of the plugs inside the overhead console.
If you go that route I would try to get the "new" version with the STARVIS 2 sensor - clarity is noticeably better, as the old one claims 4K but the sensor doesn't actually output it, so any 4K footage is simply upscaled.

I power my Wolfbox using a Dongar adapter on the factory mirror.

I don't have any experience with it, but yeah, Mangoal would be my vote for "cleanest".

Wolfbox would probably come in a close second

I like the look of that one a lot, do you know if there's a separate listing for the new one with the better sensor? I only see one option and it seems to have the base STARVIS

Not sure about Amazon but their own site has the STARVIS 2 units under a separate heading.
