Dash Cam supplier/fitter recommendation

Can anyone recommended a good dash cam provider who will do a neat installation in the Manchester area ( would be happy to travel 30 miles ish for a good supplier)
Although I'm sure its probably not that complicated, I'd don't want the hassle of trying to do it myself as I'm not good with electrics but want someone who will fit the unit neatly with care and attention to detail so the end product looks OEM.
Thanks in advance

Agree with you that it's best to get professionally fitted. Sorry I can't help with recommendation as I'm near Gatwick, West Sussex.
My first one ( a NextBase) was fitted by Halfords; my new one (last week) by RoadRadio. My experience of the NextBase was not good so this time I went for BlackVue - recommended by RoadRadio and by another mobile fitter. BlackVue has a Capacitor instead on a battery and it has a push-button on the device to do tyhe monthly SD card re-format. My NextBase 402 had neither.

I had my Nextbase fitted by Halfords as the cost of a hard-wire kit was the same as them fitting it. They did a good job - but I was breathing down their neck whilst doing it. I have found the Nextbase 312 fine, but fitted using a low profile stick-on mount so that the cam is out of my view behind the mirror.

It may seem a daunting task but it's really simple to do. I made a DIY guide for it here:

I think most people will recommend Halfords, but they will literally do the same job as the DIY guide above
