You buy a dash cam for peace of mind — but it needs to be mounted neatly and safely. More and more Dutch drivers choose a professionally installed OEM dash cam instead of a visible camera with a suction cup and loose cables. So what does installation actually cost? Here's the 2026 overview.
Installing it yourself: often free thanks to the OBD plug
The cheapest option is self-installation. Every OEM dash cam from Cam-It comes with a free OBD plug in the box. Simply plug it into your car's OBD port and within minutes your dash cam — parking mode included — is ready to use. True plug & play, no tools required.
Professional installation: from €150
Prefer to have a specialist conceal the dash cam completely, wired to the fuse box? At Cam-It you pay a fixed, transparent rate of €150 for a passenger car. All cables are hidden and the smart 24/7 parking mode is activated, without draining your battery.
For comparison: at other Dutch providers, installation costs often run to €180–€300 for workshop fitting, and even higher for on-location installation. For exactly the same quality you quickly pay considerably more.
What determines the price?
- Vehicle type: commercial vehicles or complex models sometimes require more labour time.
- Single or dual camera: a front plus rear camera requires more cabling.
- Location: installation at your home or on location involves call-out charges.
OEM dash cam + installation: the total investment
An OEM dash cam starts at €359. With our €150 installation service you're fully and invisibly protected from around €509 — often hundreds of euros below the price of comparable packages elsewhere.
