If you can wire a radar detector there, why not a dash cam?
Edit: Upon looking at this again, it looks like he wired it to the auto dimming mirror, not the dome light.
Two concerns. A) I have a stripper with 0 options. Will I have the same wire back there? B) You mentioned above that this stays powered when the car turns off. I would prefer it if it turned off when I turned off the car. |
If you pull out the dome light, and reach back behind it (towards the rear of the vehicle) there is an unused taped up wire harness that the auto-dimming mirror would use if you had one.
That harness is accessory powered so it turns off when you turn off the car. You can tap into that harness for at least one dashcam, no experience with multiple ones.
