Decent clutter free dash cams?

It can be seen in rear view mirror but you have to look for it.

It can certainly be seen by tailgate RS as they soon back off.

I may indeed invest in a rear cam soon for the purpose of deterring tailgating a-holes.
I think one can be fed into the camera I have at the front.
If not I'll flog this one and get another. Only reason I didn't get one is putting the wire in the headlining all the way to the back would've been a real faff for which I was not prepared.

I went the other way and fed the front one from the same fuse box in the luggage area. Xc70. Easy enough, rear opening trim off, drop center light, drop front light stiff wire between holes and tape hard wire loom to that, pull through. Final bit down to the front screen, push flexible wire up alongside screen and hook out at light, pull loom through. Rebuild car, took me under 2 hours.

Two years ago I bought this one after watching his review:

It's been working perfectly - no problem at all.

I'm thinking of taking it out and replace it with this one - front and rear camera:
