how to fit a dashcam to Corolla 1.8 2021?

[50p]

I have checked the forum but cannot see this topic?

Has anyone fitted a Dashcam, where was the power taken from?

Routing of the cable .. can it be thread around the windscreen or would this interfere with any airbags?

any help gratefully received

If you're hard wiring the Dashcam, check with your insurer whether they regard it as a modification. Some do if it is hard wired - If removable (ie not hard wired) some say it isn't a modification.

Hello Mate,

I can recommend Halfords for fitting Dash Cams. Very quick, cheap, do a perfect job. I would say much better than the hassel of DIY (they put two in my Prius, rear and front), cheers, Mark

Hi to hard wire your dash cam  you piggyback off the power socket fuse from the fuse box which is located under the glove box.

The Dashcam I rescued from my previous car is 5v so I would have to wire in a stepdown transformer. My main concern is not obstructing the airbags by placing the cable around the windscreen
