24. Suction/adhesive mounted car cameras
Before you purchase your camera please ensure you have read and understand the laws regarding the mounting position, especially for suction mounted cameras. More information on this can be found in our guide “How, and where, to mount your car camera”.
We cannot take responsibility for any wrong-doings as a result of the mounting type and position you mount the camera in. It’s your responsibility to ensure you adhere to the relevant legislation before you purchase your car camera.
25. Hardwire kits and integrations
25.1. We recommend hiring a fully qualified and professional auto electrician to undertake any hard-wiring work on your vehicle. We cannot take any responsibility for any loss or damage to the camera, vehicle, your health, or anything else for that matter. Hardwiring a camera is done at your own risk and may invalidate your camera or vehicle warranty. We provide no support with hardwiring. Damage to the camera as a result of a hardwiring kit NOT supplied by us will not be able to be returned for a refund.
25.2. Wiring a camera without using the supplied standard cigarette lighter cable is not supported by Car Camera Shop. We do not take any responsibility for any issues that arise to the hardwire equipment, camera, mount, car electrics. Wiring a camera without using the supplied standard cigarette lighter cable is done entirely at your own risk. We cannot be held responsible for any installation costs or additional installation costs that may be incurred after a fault or failure of camera, mount, hardwire kit, or car electrics. We advise you to test all the components before wiring to the vehicle to ensure correct operation.
25.3. If your car is over sensitive to power or is not compatible with the hardwire kit purchased and additional wiring equipment is required, this is not included and you will need to pay for the additional wiring equipment.
25.4. We cannot guarantee that every dash cam will work with all vehicles. Some vehicles are sensitive to power which may cause issues. This could be an issue with the camera itself, hardwire accessory, or the installation. If in any doubt, you should talk to the vehicle manufacturer and ask them to carry out the installation for you.
25.5. Our standard 30 day returns period starts from the date the camera is delivered and not the installation date which may be later. It’s therefore important that you test the camera fully when you receive it to make sure it works OK before being installed. If you wish to return the camera once it has been installed after the 30 day returns period, the normal returns procedure will apply and you may not be able to return the camera for a full refund.
25.6. When using our installation partner, the additional following terms apply:
(a) you can cancel the installation at any time before the day of the appointment. After this, a cancellation charge of £60 will be payable.
(b) if, for any reason, the installation cannot be performed due to the engineer being unable to attend you will be refunded in full.
(c) the installation warranty requires that the installation is not tampered with in any way.
(d) the installation warranty does not cover replacements to the camera should it be faulty.
(e) if the camera or hardwire kit is deemed faulty and additional installation callouts are required, you will be charged for these callouts.
(f) if the installation has been modified or tampered with, the warranty will not be valid and a callout charge of £80 will be payable.
(g) installation costs are not refundable even if the camera is faulty and has to be returned.
(h) if your car is sensitive to power and additional wiring equipment is required this is not included and you will need to pay for the additional wiring equipment.
(i) due to the nature of mobile installations our installation partner is unable to confirm an exact time for the install. They will usually provide a window but this may run over so please make sure you are free for the entire day. No compensation will be offered for failed or late installation appointments.
(j) if you have purchased the equipment elsewhere and it is faulty or an item is missing, a cancellation fee of £60 will be payable. Once paid the engineer will be able to return and complete the installation.
25.7. You should always test your camera prior to installation to save on any failed and repeat installations. We recommend running the camera for a few days in the car using the supplied cigarette lighter cable. This is your responsibility and we cannot be held liable for any additional costs incurred as a result of not testing your camera in advance.
26. DAB Radio reception interference
26.1. Some cameras can interfere with DAB radios in some cars. It’s impossible for us to know whether a camera will cause interference based on the sheer number of cars and radios available. Should you receive interference there are a few things that you can try to eliminate this (see blog post) but you won’t be able to return 26.1. Some cameras can interfere with DAB radios in some cars. It’s impossible for us to know whether a camera will cause interference based on the sheer number of cars and radios available. Should you receive interference there are a few things that you can try to eliminate this (see blog post) but you won’t be able to return the camera for a full refund since the camera is not faulty.
