@FRSBRZGT86FAN has mentioned a secondary device that you use to hardwire the cam to so it doesnt drain your primary battery. I'm sure he can jump in here.

You're going to want a Lukas LK-530, or cellink Battery B or power magic pro if you want the dashcam to run for an extended period while the car is off. You use the glovebox cigarette lighter port for power, and run the wiring nice and neat through the headliner. Also you're going to need more than one sd card, it's very common for SD cards to fail when used in this recording manner, especially in the hot summer when heat begins to effect the dash-cam.
