I believe Halfords do quite a good deal on one and will fit it for you or there's the Road Angel people who advertise in PHTM

You could of course, simply turn it round to face to the rear.

Thats the one i used for about a year. acted as a deterrent more then anything but worked a treat as it. Got asked on a regular basis what it was, so served its purpose.

but the quality is average and not nessarily this one but the playback on most are very poor and alot of the times the devices do not work that well.

Ive now gone onto a Nextbase , mainly for better quality and reliability .

spend about £40 on the right one and you will be ok. but theres alot about on ebay that are poor so be careful

Mine cost me £49.99, the quality at nigh time is as good as the day. It can zoom in X4.

You could always cover the screen with something if it can't be turned off.

Yeas I know, if you record the inside you need to be registered with the commissioners office. I've got one for the inside too.
