Dumb Questions from a Newby!
If you leave the Key in the car and shut the doors, nothing If you have the hill hold on, it won't do any thing as that only does anything when driving( its not a hand brake) but you do have a hand brake, but you don't need to apply it as when you stop the engine it will come on automatically, and also when you are setting off you don't need to take the hand brake off as it will disengage as you set off

Dash-Cam connectivity with USB C socket adjacent to rear view mirror.
Just to put a spanner in the works, If you are using just a single camera you might be fine, but if you are thinking of both front and rear I don't think the USB supplies enough power for both. But to be honest connecting to the fuse box is not hard and its then just a matter of running the cable under the trim

2023 vrs towbar
OK Dave, if you were a bit closer I would recommend East Yorkshire Retrofit as I have had some work done by them and the did a perfect job fitting a reverse camera, but would have liked the electric retracting towbar, but I guess the company in Poole will do the job right (hopefully at the right price) for you, Good luck

2023 vrs towbar
First thing to check is what your car can tow, a lot have zero Kg limit, and that would stop you towing, you can check on the sticker on the drivers door slam (thats where mine is) and then find a decent towbar fitter that can code as well as fitting the bar, I had a removable one fitted to my VRS estate and had it coded and if it is coded correctly you wont have any problems with reversing, as when you plug in it detects the trailer(Caravan) and switches off the system for reversing !

Brake pad change with EPB
You don't need any device to do the front, but you need a wind back tool like OBD11 etc to wind the piston in to change the pads
