My camera from CarCam Netherlands has just arrived.

https://www.carcam.nl/dashcam/porsche-quad-hd-dual-dashcam-binnenspiegel-voor-en-achter/

It will be a few weeks before I get to the install, but I plan on documenting the full process and sharing here. I bought this camera fully aware of the Porsche one and potential warranty issues.

Nice, glad I could help. I will be ordering one also. I just need to wait another 2 weeks to get my car.

I'm curious about the image quality of the camera.

Did you got the change to install the camera? If yes, what are your first impressions.
I didn't as my car is waiting on some warranty work – which is underway at the moment. I plan on installing it Friday. When I do, I'll be posting a full report.

Ordered the Porsche DashCam. Will get it fitted May, 21. More to follow then.
Will Porsche retrofit this themselves, or do you need to go to a different garage to install it?

It will be done right at the official Porsche dealership. I did not even ask what the mounting will cost, as I wanted it to to be done anyway by the experts (warranty, 12V-bleeding, or whatsoever). Soon I'll be wiser...

is it just a front camera? Nothing for the back?

Unfortunately, the belief is that this is only a front-facing camera. Too bad, I would definitely have done with a rear facing camera.

Yeah. Hardly ever back into parking spaces so this would only be helpful when driving. The shock settings in the app would be rather useless. :(

agreed, and I am installed a black view because it has the rear facing camera
