You buy a dashcam for peace of mind — but it does need to be fitted neatly and safely. More and more Dutch drivers are choosing a professionally installed OEM dashcam instead of a visible camera with a suction cup and loose cables. But what does that installation actually cost? In this article we lay out the 2026 prices.
Install it yourself: often free thanks to the OBD plug
The cheapest option is to install it yourself. Every OEM dashcam from Cam-It comes with a free OBD plug in the box as standard. You simply plug it into your car's OBD port and within a few minutes your dashcam — including parking mode — is ready to use. True plug & play, no tools required.
Professional installation: from €150
Would you rather have a specialist hide the dashcam completely on the fuse box? At Cam-It you pay a fixed, transparent rate of €150 for a passenger car. All cables are tucked away and the smart 24/7 parking mode is activated, without draining your battery.
For comparison: other Dutch providers often charge €180 to €300 for in-workshop installation, and more for on-location fitting. For exactly the same quality, you quickly pay a lot more.
What determines the price?
- Type of car: commercial vehicles or complex models sometimes take more labour time.
- Single or dual camera: a front and rear camera requires more wiring.
- Location: installation at your home or on location involves call-out costs.
OEM dashcam + installation: the total investment
An OEM dashcam starts at €359. With our €150 installation service, you're fully and invisibly protected from around €509 — often hundreds of euros below comparable packages elsewhere.
