Hi Robgee, check out any offers, the Ford dealership quoted me £172 to take my old Nextbase 422gw out of my Fiesta ST and refit to my new Puma🤣
The Ford salesman advised me to use Halfords👍
Very pleased with the new 522gw dashcam so far and my son in law is pleased with my old dashcam ... win win😁
When this Coronavirus is over thinking of getting a rear view dashcam too.

I think Citroen fit one in their c3 aircross. Don't know of any others.
Yes they are fitted to the c3, I think a lot of dealers offer to fit dash cams on your new car, but I agree they should be standard, with perhaps an upgrade to a better camera ( 4K ? J on the options list..

If anyone has a next base camera and the hardwire kit phone their technical helpline and they will send the adapter guy need to use the fuse box under the console in the passenger footwell. They haven’t included this but will in the new hardwire kits

Got my dash cam fitted today, a blackvue 900s front and rear cameras, the guy who fitted it said that the fuse box under the glovebox, there are two wires, one red one green, right at the bottom, one is permanently live, the other is switched live, can’t remember which way round but it might help if anyone is going to fit their own camera and hardwire it

Hi all. Got nextbase sending me micro2 fitting and fuse. Tried to get a 2amp micro2 fuse Wow it's difficult as most only stock 5amp as the lowest. Rs components stock them, 90 pence with postage nearly £7. Worth a call to nextbase. To fit just remove the liner in between passenger footwell and glove box. This will expose fuses. Remove clips inside glove box to drop down for easier access when feeding cable.
Loving the puma and not found any faults as yes and hopefully won't.
