@doug992 all black car would be perfect with the paint-to-match option instead of the satin black. Then you'd be back to the 2 shades of black. #blackcarsmatter

Too soon?

Blackvue 900. Wired it into the aux 12v outlet. No easy way to wire a rear camera around the center mirror stack, so opted for a 1Ch camera and tucked the wire around the A pillar. Went in pretty clean.

Looks good. I got a 2ch, also wired to the 12V. I setup the rear camera just above the rear view mirror. It works like a back facing camera with the top down, less so with the top up- more like an internal camera. I can take it out if I need the camera to face someone directly.
I recall someone trying to 3D print a case to set it up outside of the car, akin to the XM radio wart. On this car it's not difficult to hide it by the brake light with a dark case. If I had a 3D scanner I would try to blend with the brake light or the grill.

It’s a couple weeks old now, but I got my car a mini-me. Same colour & wheels, so I had to grab it when I saw it at the dealership.

I didn't buy it, but Porsche sent me a SECOND rubber floor mat drink coaster last week. I feel so honored to have received two of them.

I bought the same Dashcam and wired it into the drivers side fuse box with a fuse tap. Was really easy, had some help from some people here. I even did it in my work parking lot.

Got the OEM painted key fob trim pieces, but they didn't quite look right with the car's color scheme, so . . .
