I have broken two of my old power connectors because of the tight fit between the top of the unit and the window frame. Is there a replacement power cord that has an angled USB connector? Thanks!

There are such cables available but they're not always that easy to find. Another option is to use a right angle 5 pin Mini-B to Mini-B adapter. They are available for right or left installations.

Sounds like you did like me and mounted the camera just a tad too high on the windscreen.
Though i did not break any USB connectors, it did make taking the camera off the mount a bit harder than it had to be. So with subsequent cameras i have been more mindful when installing.
I did basically the same thing when I mounted my SG9665GC, basically because I was trying to hide the camera behind the frit as much as possible and still not have the lens affected by anything in its FOV. Although it was mounted a bit too high the strain relief fins on the plug eventually became somewhat bent permanently so that it was like a de facto right angle plug, thus making the connection easier to deal with. The cable and plug remained fully functional and undamaged for the entire time I owned the camera until it finally croaked after a long agonizing demise.
