I feel fortunate to have found this site.
I am hoping you could help me decide on some cameras for my classic muscle car, specifically a 1969 Mustang Mach 1
I would like to at least put a forward facing dash cam in there. The car gets a lot of attention and I'd like to be able to show without question what happened (hoping nothing ever does happen). In addition to the front facing cam a rear facing camera that could aid with parking and keep an eye out on what is behind me would be nice to have but not required.
Some basic requirements for the front facing cam:
at least try to be less than obvious (doesn't have to be small, but 12" by 12" won't cut it.
)
must not loose user settings with disconnected from power (stored with battery disconnected)
record in a loop, i.e. i should not have to press a button to record, it should always be recording, then when storage space is filled, it automatically over-writes the oldest data.
storage capacity should be able to hold at least 1 hour video
resolution should be at least 1080P with 30 fps
-IF- rear camera the front facing cam should be able to display the video image on its screen from rear camera.
-IF- no rear camera screen is less important.

must be able to send (via wired and/or wireless) the rear cam image to the screen up front. Screen may be part of front facing cam or could be independent screen.
not sure on mounting position, back window? under back spoiler? on license plate?
nice to have (not even sure if possible)
link with android device? allow display of video on android device? independent brightness adjustments for day and night.
thanks for all your help and suggestions.
