Rear AND front parking dash cam

I am after a recommendation for rear and front parking camera. I need to be able to install front cam on the licence plate or similar level to cover blind spots same goes for rear one. It would be great if they had recording function too.

I found few online meeting the above criteria but all seem to be made and sold from China with no online reviews so I am unable to verify their reliability and quality hence asking for recommendation.

    99% will be made in China. Even some top brands have their items made in China.

    When fitting you simply open it up and add additional waterproofing to ensure it does not leak internally.

    Protect it from the elements.

    I appreciate 99% of tech is made in China nowadays. It is more lack of reviews that worries me as I cannot compare available models nor verify their quality.

    I think your answer is in the original post, unless you think the OP should be mounting his head on the front licence plate... :eek:

    All well and good if you can see the front of your car from the drivers seat, there's a lot where you can't.
