It's a top choice for many luxury vehicles because of it's sleek style. While the video quality isn't amazing, that's common among dual channel cameras because of the added complexity.

For example some BMWs will spit out an error message if you tap the wrong circuit. I'm happy to admit where I'm not an expert, go ask them for hardwiring advice.
