    Great thing about WD is you can check your Serial Numbers are valid and within warranty date online. https://support.wdc.com/warranty/

    Maybe the supplier only sells tat then. I agree with Sixwheel, the chances of you actually getting a decent picture of someone damaging your vehicle is a 200 to 1 at best, and if you insist on us

Yes the Neighbour fine with it, as they are getting free security as well and free of charge.

so it will go through Neighbour walls and same height Bt line, so it will not interfere with Long Ladders

 

So what's distance from nearest camera point to where car is parked , I assume distance becomes shorter?

 

Maybe do an overhead drawing 

 

By the way if your going DIY hiwatch is probably the equipment you may want to use , but with a full size recorder not the little square box in some kits , they are hybrid versions so you can fit diff cams to them depending on what you need 

 

Shame you don't have budget £2500 ? Do it once get contractor in? 

 

Your far from Manchester ? I sure someone near you can give you a quote less hassle for you but whatever DIY it if you have to

 

I kind of get it I think , although alley way , building is high enough to mount a camera which isn't to easy to get to , few spikes under it will help

Distance will become shorter from the camera to the car about 20 metres. Distance from my house to 50metres.

 

is this another brand Hiwatch or are you talking about Hikvision ?

You have hiwatch above in your list, it's DIY for hikvision now

 

Also I was pretty sure the hik7204 etc is all hiwatch, you can only buy the DIY range of hiking that's what there selling you and it will do the job 

 

Where you mount the car camera you may need two 

 

One giving a wide view and another giving a close up

Forget that total waste of time 

 

Annke

Swamn

Maplins....

Screwfix....

 

All will give you trouble , at least with hikvision it's based around the pro-diy gear and now they have DIY gear , I say that because that's what there game plan was before 

 

But it's still worth getting it fitted just to remind you of that lol
