I bought one of these "DOD GSE550 Car DVR Black Box Camera with GPS/Speed Logger & Voice record" and mounted it infront of the rearview mirror, and got power for it off the lighting/sunroof consol. It comes on when either the accessories is on or when the engine is running.

It records in HD, 120deg angle, takes a 64gig MicroSD, holds about 16 hours before it overwrites, has HDMI and a small LCD screen.

There no reason while you could not wire it to perminent 12v source.

You can hardly see it beside the large bezel of the BMW rearview mirror.
