Have a look at this. It is easy to do, and very unobtrusive.

Is this a permanent live? If so I could I use the viofo hardwire kit? Currently I have a switch so the camera can either run for 5 minutes after engine off, or continue until battery hits 11.6v, which I feel is too low. I just use the continued running if parking up for a few hours, but have occasionally forgot to turn it off.
