About this product
Fitting one of these to a Porsche is mostly a question of which trim piece comes off, because the camera is made to replace or sit inside the cover that already surrounds the mirror stem rather than hang below it. Power is taken from the car's harness, so no cable crosses the windscreen - and that also means the fit depends on what is already in that area of your car, such as an auto-dimming mirror, a rain sensor housing or a factory front camera. Work through it in this order: identify your model and year, send the seller a photo of your mirror base, ask which cover the kit replaces and whether the version you are buying includes the harness adapter, then decide whether you are doing the trim work yourself. The listing covers Macan, Cayenne, Taycan, Panamera, 718 and 911.

Pros & cons
Pros
- Designed to replace or sit inside the mirror-stem cover, so the windscreen stays clear of added hardware
- Powered from the car's harness rather than the 12 V socket, keeping the interior looking standard
- Covered list includes Macan, Cayenne, Taycan, Panamera, 718 and 911, so the common Porsche bodies are addressed
- No cable crosses the driver's field of view, which is the point of a hidden-cable install
- Fitting is reversible trim work rather than anything cut into the car
Cons
- The listed Porsche models are only covered where the mirror base matches - a different trim or year can use another cover
- A car with a factory front camera or rain-sensor housing behind the mirror may need a different version of the kit
- You still have to tap the car's harness for power, so confirm the warranty position first
- Trim removal on a Porsche needs plastic tools and patience - if that is not for you, budget for a fitter
