After a few months of should I, should't I decided to get a crash cam fitted to the Jeep by a mobile fitter.
Decided to have the supplier fit it and it came in at around £60 less than price by local suppliers Mobile Solutions of Derby for the same kit.

It took the fitter about an hour and a half to wire it up with static facility as well as when driving. All wires neatly hidden away inside the headlining with a neat little loop for the rear camera to allow for the glass panel to open separate from the tail gate.

Used this firm on recommendation from a friend who had them fit parking sensors to his Fiat Panda 4x4 Penguin edition. They did a really good job even painting two of the rear sensors white and two black so it looked like a factory fit.

One useful byproduct is I am driving a little less aggressively in traffic as it's like being spied on in the vehicle. That feeling might fade with time I suspect. It has speed camera alerts & GPS with a nice little chime if it thinks you are a tad close to the vehicle in front when doing over 20 mph. It also has lane guidance but have left that switched off for now. Pairs up to your mobile phone so you can check the camera views and adjust the various settings. It seems very good at night being able to read VRM's easily.
