Where to get a front/rear dashcam installed?

[brewsterbudgen]

I installed a front only dashcam 6 years ago myself, but looking at my new front/rear dashcam it looks a lot more difficult, especially fitting the rear cam.

 

What type of establishment can fit it for me?  Do B-Quik do this type of job?

There is no harm in going to B-Quick and asking them to do it...  

In other threads people have taken their car to an Audio-shop (the sort of local place that sells the loud car music systems), they will do it (usually).

 

That said...  I've done this myself (front and rear facing) on two different SUV's of mine in the past. 

It really is very easy and does not requre any particular skillset or automotive knowledge. 

 

The trickeist part is threading the the cable through the rubber electrical conduit that goes from the fixed part of the roof to the rear tailgate.

The cables can easily be tucked up inside the upholster / roof lining - I've found a credit card or something similar helps with this.

 

Anotehr part of installation is if you want the cam hard-wired with a fuse-tap for Park mode (with a power saver device) or simply use the 12v plug (for simplicity of installation) and the cam is only one when the ignition is on.

Do you intend to buy the cams separately, just want it to be fitted?

 

In most cities you find specialized workshops that sell and install such stuff.

You can get kind of 360 degree recording for a price.

 

I did a simple search for "dash cam rayong" and some results come up.

What you say makes sense, but I've already bought the camera. 

 

RCC look professional.  I wonder if they'll install the one I've already bought.  I will check.  Thanks for the advice.
