Hello, I've never had a dashcam before and I would like to buy one and hardwire it to my car. Where I live (France) dashcams aren't illegal but very rarely used.
The 2 models that have made my final list are the VIOFO A119 V3 and the Nextbase 522gw. When I look at the reviews it seems the VIOFO A119 V3 is extremely superior to the Nextbase. All the reviews tend to say that the Nextbase is of mediocre quality (I'm suprises by this because the 522 isn't inexpensive).
I have a 2017 Audi A3 S-Line and I watched this tutorial on an 2017 Audi S5 (link :
) which gives me confidence that I can hardwire it on my own. I do not wish for a parking mode, since I park my car every day in an underground private locked garage. My plan is to hardwire the dashcam to an ACC fuse.
I wanted to know if I buy an A119 V3 and I just wanted to hardwire it to an ACC fuse, will a hardwire kit like this work : https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/B07F71RBR8
The VIOFO hardwire kit doesn't interest me because it has both Battery and ACC cable, and I just want the ACC cable so that the camera will only turn on when the car is on + It doesn't have the fuses so you need to buy extra things. Having all in 1 kit is very convenient for me.
Thank you for your answers.
