Gordon R Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 Good point. I need to check if I have an ignition controlled power socket in the boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done that with both front and rear cameras. I bought an extension lead for the front camera, off Ebay. I have concealed the wiring behind door pillar trims, headlining and dashboard. If I need the 12v outlet for any other reason, it is usually when stationary anyway, so I just unplug the camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave at kelton Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Swapped my front camera from pickup on sale to van. The first was wired through the lighter output but I had the van hard wired by Halfords. Now I know what some of you think of them but they did a great job for fifty quid and that included the price of the kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing using dash cam in a pick up is off road they will store files to the sd card at every bump stop as you drive off road. Need to remember to delete stored files often.
