how to hard wire dash cam

the wires ran down to the center console aren't bad.

But has anyone hard wired a dash cam? if so how would be much appreciated.

its impossible for you to do it. you need to fly me out to perform this delicate procedure

ok i lied. remove the passenger pillar and run the wires down it being careful to not cross the airbag. drop down to the fuse box and get your connections there. should take you 30min depending on how many beers you pound

I’ll be adding a dual dash camera system to mine shortly. It uses a micro USB cable between the main (front) and secondary (rear) cameras.

There’s some F150 YouTube videos that show you how to lower the headliner, remove the passenger pillar, etc.

I tucked the wire into the headliner and ran it down the passenger pillar.

then under the floor mat to the center console.


I'll check out videos on where exactly to wire it into on by the fuse box

While drunk it's pretty easy. While sober with the wife bitching you out is more difficult so drink up.

Here you go, good step by step video. He’s pretty good, with several decent how to videos.

It's really easy - as others have said, and the video shows, the front cam runs headliner to a pillar to passenger kick panel. Rear camera runs headliner all the way around to the front camera. The hardest part is figuring where to tap into in the fuse panel.

I tapped my radar into the mirror wires. I can't remember which slots you tap into, but assuming you just need power/ground you could likely use something like this and splice your power into the little tap guys. They plug into the clip. Might be able to just find the taps somewhere
