1) Mounted on the dash instead of the windshield
It might be easier to look for a dashboard mount and compatible camera than the other way around. A lot of the Viofo units are wedge shaped which matches windshield angle with the camera at the bottom.
Garmin has a few which support suction cups.

FWIW, I'd probably buy different models to put in my own car vs a rental. There's a lot of wires or power adapter that I wouldn't want to dislodge.
