Thanks! Brief update after driving couple hundred miles:
Nextbase Dash Cam:
This powers on as soon as you grip the comfort entry door handle. Seems to stay on for as long as the "follow me home" lights.
Video quality is excellent for a $30 camera. However, after few trips in sunny weather, noticed a lot of reflection from the dashboard / B&O speaker cover. Bought a Nextbase polarising filter (they're on clearance at Best Buy for $15). Unbelievable difference! You attach it to the camera lens, rotate it, and watch the reflections literally disappear.
Radar Detector/Mount/Wire Tap:
Mount has been really solid for a $40 unit. Barely vibrates, really strong hold.
Only thing I've had issue with is the mirror tap. On my second drive it stopped working as the tap connectors apparently weren't in firm enough (even though I made a point to properly insert them). Easy enough fix, just re-inserted them. Happened again recently when the car was sitting in the sun for a few hours. I'll keep an eye on this, and may replace with a different mirror tap.
