I have thought about it, but I would want one that is integrated into the car, and not some hacked on appendage on the windshield.

One of my buddies that owns a 911 SC also has three Corvettes. The newest one is a 2017 or so. He took it to his dealer for some warranty work. He got it back and it had wheel curb rash, and a broken spoiler. The car has a valet mode and he had put it in that mode. The dude at the dealership that moves the cars around and washes the cars took it on a joy ride. 85 MPH down a 40 MPH road, then into a convenience store for a 6 pack of beer and tore up the spoiler. The camera showed the guy walking back to the car drinking one beer and the rest of the 6 pack in his hands as he walked back towards the car.

My buddy filed a police report, in case there was any doubt he did not drive 85 in a 40 zone, and the dealership did a brake job, 4 new tires and wheels, and all the body work needed to make the car right.

The culprit was fired, but the police never followed up on any charges.
