Thats oddly specific...good luck haha
I'd also suggest buying a dashcam, literally plug and play (cigarette lighter) and turns on automatically when the car starts...also easy to hide cables behind trimming...this is the one I have and its hidden behind my rearview mirror, I dont even notice its there
Price went up a few bucks to $86. http://amzn.com/B00TXR2P40
I really like this one. It's small, so that it's easy to tuck away out of your LoS, but still has a screen.
I leave it in and it's hooked up to the 12V socket. Most are designed to be pretty hard to notice, and it's only powered on when the power is turned on.
I have a B40C and an A119C.
They're easy to remove if you choose to take them out of your car when you leave it, usually just snapping onto the mount. Depending on the model, some need to be re-hooked up, but some are wired to a GPS mount and the camera itself can just snap in and out easily.
Get one!
You've pretty much described the A118-C. I have one and I like it. It gets the job done.

Two very solid dashcams. /r/dashcam can be of help too! :)
Haven't used it myself but I bought this for a family member recently.
Got this one with GPS last April and it's awesome for what I need it to do.
Night video leaves a lot of be desired, but it gets the basic job done fine.
I'd like to put them in all my cars, but the one I have, Black Box B40-C, occasionally doesn't power on when I start the car if it is a couple days between starting. I love the camera and I'm fine with just pushing the power button. But I know no one else would notice in the other cars... I need a camera that reliably will record without any interaction for months.
Is this normal for them to occasionally need to be manually powered on?
After researching I think I've settled on this one
I have this and has held up well to the heat

This guy right here, Black Box B40-C
That is the same shape I was looking at but the price is way better, plus this one comes with GPS stuff and a capacitor. Thanks for your recommendation! https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00TXR2P40/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?qid=1464315100&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=B40%2FA118&dpPl=1&dpID=41m3ffJV8RL&ref=plSrch
There is a custom shop by me, I might see of I can get them to put power in the back of my car so I can put my g1w on the back window.
It doesn't get as hot as that here but I was also interested in a capacitor based cam.
I got the Black Box B40-C from amazon for less than $80. I believe this is a 118 cam.
One thing I liked about this cam is that the cables attach from the top rather than the side. It makes for a very stealthy install.
I have this one in my Prius...works pretty well. I haven't installed one in my Lexus yet.
I've had this one for a little over a year now and it's been great. I hardwired it to a switched fuse so it turns on and off with the car, and the two sided tape has made sure it stays put on the windshield. It was small enough that I was able to mount it in front of my rear view mirror, so most of the time I forget it's even there.
So this misses your dual channel key feature, but I got it a year ago and it held up to the heat in Phoenix, AZ nicely.
