Question Dashcam Hardwire Install help?

I ordered a dashcam and have been looking at ways to hardwire it to the car and came across one option I really like but I'm an electircal noob and was looking for help from one of you electrical geniuses on how I could accomplish this myself!

The dashcam I ordered:
[ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ECCIZDQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1"]Amazon.com : Blackvue DR500GW32G-PMP 32GB Wi-Fi Car DVR Black Box Camera Recorder with Power Magic Pro : Vehicle Backup Cameras : Car Electronics[/ame]

The harness/connector I would like to connect it to:

From other threads I've researched on this "option connector" or (d29) on our wiring diagram is a 6 pin connector and has a ground and accessory slot. (pg.40 of wiring diagram i believe)

Now what I couldn't find was how to wire the dashcam and the power supply to this connector.
1.Which pin location would each wire have to go to?
2. How would I connect the wires securely into the connector?


I want to wire it to this connector so everything will be hidden and I don't have to have tap into the fuse box and keep the fuse box cover removed. Any input anyone can give would be GREATLY appreciated! Thank You!

It's plug and play. The option harness plugs right into the blue connector

Haha yeah I found the thread explaining that after I posted lol. But I sent the guy an email over a week ago for the connector and haven't heard back yet. How long did it take you to hear back and receive the harness?
