Hooking up a dashcam and need to get some switched power. Where can I get thru the firewall to get to the fuse box?


TIA

If you have the Factory installed AUX switches, there is a feed under the glove box. If not, there is a plug above the brake pedal that it can be brought through (unless you have a manual transmission).

AUX switch bundle is #1 (if available), #2 for me is the cigarette adapter wires. They're easy to get to and mimic what you'd be doing already (which is plugging the dashcam into it). Also means fusing won't be a problem as the accessory fuse is well matched for the dashcam.
