Right now I have the Street Guardian Amazon Link http://a.co/ecKpfV1 It records footage, audio, gps speed and location. Has a super capacitor so you dont have to worry about your internal battery killing the camera during hot summers. Also is a "set it up and forget it" type camera it records in loops so never runs out of memory... just start your car and go.
I don't use the Street Guardian but I do use the A118 (Or B40, take your pick) which is what the street guardian is based on and so I do recommend either what you have or a cheaper version. I don't have the GPS antennae but you can hook them up to these as well. I prefer the battery version to the capacitor version (I have both) because the battery version will power the camera for a little while after the car is shut off while the capacitor version stops recording the second you turn the car off and open the door. Search A118 or B40 and you get a bunch. I have not had a failure yet but I do know it happens with these cams. My oldest is over 2 years old. I did have an issue with it where it stopped overwriting once but a reset and a reformat of the card fixed it. And this is in the Phoenix heat.

Also, dashcamtalk.com is a great forum for anyone interested in dash cams.
