Dashcam Wiring in New V60
|
I've had a Transcend camera mounted in the same position on my V40 for 4 years, no issues at all. The wiring is routed behind the roof lining, down the A-pillar and into the void behind the dashboard above the glovebox, where the dashcam cable plug is connected to another cable terminating in a power socket and wired into the 12v power socket in the centre console.
There is no problem with routing a cable down the A-pillar as long as you follow the same route as any existing wiring and avoid it crossing or laying over the top of the airbag.
