Hardwiring a Dashcam in a HEV

[Firecycle]

Hi folks, I was wondering if any of you have hard wired a Dashcam in a Gen 5 HEV? Any advice would be gratefully recieved.

Yes, the dealer fitted the standard Toyota Dashcam offering for me - it's hardwired.

Hi Gary

It depends on which Dashcam you want, Toyota use a Nextbase and I had mine dealer fitted.

I have Garmin 57 I hardwired on my 1967 Mercedes, Garmin do a "parking" harness for £20 that is wired to the ignition and permanent live, so it will record any parking incident when you are absent.

You can also get a kit to hardwire to the OBD2 connection on the Garmin & some other Dashcams.

Halfords also offer to fit and supply at a reasonable cost, mainly Nextbase.

Hi Paul, I am looking at  a Thinkwre F200 Pro front and rear set up, I have now been able to find a rather detailed video on YouTube which was very helpful, but as Joe has suggested I will look for some further info on here when I get a spare 5 minutes over the weekend.
