I would suggest a dash cam from the nextbase range . The existing wiring up to the screen will probably need to be changed , but not difficult. Buy a genuine nextbase hardwire kit . Fitted loads of these with no problems.

Thanks friend. I was going the wiring would be re-usable given it is hidden away behind trim. Could the wiring be utilised at all? Don't mind changing the mount etc. I hoped that these devices worked on a common system. Mine comes on when the ignition is switched on.

Ah well. I don't suppose you live anywhere near mid Kent? I could do with someone with experience that comes recommended. Cheers Concrete

Even if they are different connectors, an adapter, e.g. usb mini to micro, might be the solution.

Thank you chaps. All good comments. I shall source a Nextbase form the internet and hopefully a professional who will be able to assess the job and fit it. Just hope it easier than the Silent Witness kit. Could not recommend it at all. Maybe OK if you work for NASA!!

Just a thought. If Elec/doctor is in Essex I would be prepared to travel from Kent. If you do it for a living that is.

Too true GB. The warning bells started early when I was told I had to 're-format' the device every few weeks. Also had to buy and install a 28bit SD card for more video storage. No instructions so after the demo I had to go online. Their website is confusing and apparently not all laptops can download their software to read the camera footage. They have their own software which is not generally compatible with a lot of kit. All in all a bit of a mess. The camera worked well, but now plays up. The images were clear and sharp but everything else about Silent Witness is a nightmare. Do not go near one unless you are a techy or in the trade, they are not user friendly which really is the prime requisite for anything sold to the public. I will change it as soon as I can.
