So, go to a place that rents motion picture sound gear and rent a field
kit with a single-point stereo mike.

This outfit can probably help you :

Also, something to consider is the safety of the equipment. Do they know
they are being recorded and cool with it? Or is this for a employer or law
enforcement "intelligence gathering" operation? If it's 'secret' you may
need to worry about size and concealment. And if it's not for a documentary
or reality show but someone is trying to bust them, and they find the mic's,
is would be a costly shame for the equipment to become literally lubed and
torched! ;-)
