I wouldn't have a clue where to begin with this so will need to get someone to do it. As the car is new would it be best to get the dealer to do this? Or would it matter?

Or would I be better getting a power bank and just using that? I'm afraid that that would be more obvious, as the wires would be exposed - I'd just have them hanging there

Advice much appreciated. Thanks
