How to Route the Dash Cam Wiring in the Car?

[AdalineLynn]

Dash cam wiring methods and precautions: 1. Avoid routing wires near airbag locations to prevent interference with airbag deployment or potential injury caused by high-speed airbag ejection. 2. Tuck the wire along the upper edge of the windshield into the exterior trim panel of the A-pillar, then route it downward through the sealing strip on the side of the center console. From there, run it under the glove box to the cigarette lighter, or along the lower edge of the door frame to the rear seats or trunk. Secure any excess wiring by coiling it neatly. 3. Before purchasing, measure your intended wiring route with a string to determine the required power cord length. Manufacturers typically offer multiple options or provide original cables in various lengths. 4. Start wiring from the dash cam end, leaving excess wire at the opposite end for easier securing and concealment. However, never run wires across seat rails, as they may get crushed and damaged during seat adjustments.
