The dash cam wire can be connected to: 1. Cigarette lighter; 2. ACC fuse box. Dash cams are categorized by function into: 1. High-definition dash cam; 2. Mini dash cam; 3. Night vision dash cam; 4. Wide-angle dash cam; 5. Dual-lens dash cam; 6. Multi-function all-in-one dash cam; 7. Eyewear-style multi-function dash cam. The functions of a dash cam include: 1.

The dashcam wire is usually connected to a power source, with the most common location being the cigarette lighter socket. It's located near the center console in the car, and you can simply plug it in, but it will occupy one socket, affecting the charging of other devices. I used to do this for a long time but later found the dangling wire unsightly and potentially hazardous. Eventually, I switched to connecting it to the fuse box, which is a more permanent and hassle-free solution. The fuse box is located under a small cover near the driver's footwell; look for the ACC fuse socket, which powers the dashcam when the ignition is on and turns it off when the engine is off to avoid draining the battery. Use professional wiring clips during installation and avoid tampering to prevent short circuits. Also, route the wires away from the airbag and avoid obstructing the driver's view. Beginners can purchase installation kits online or watch tutorials to learn more before attempting the installation.
