I unmounted the arm rest and drilled a tiny hole, cut the cable, fed through and ran up the trim, all secure and unseen.
Nice install! I am a fan of those small dashcams with no screen...could come in handy if someone hits you. If the car will sit out in direct summer sun beware the internal battery may bulge and/or stop working eventually. I have a Mobius and it happened to me. They sell an inexpensive capacitor that isn't sensitive to high temperatures that you can replace the battery with.
