Nextbase hard wiring kit recommendations

[HDAV]

Anyone recommend a hard wiring kit for a next base dashcam ideally one that piggybacks on a fuse from the glove box fuse box and which fuse to piggy back from

[green van man]

Halfords sell the next Base hard wiring kit for around £20, which is where I got all 4 of mine.

They come with the piggy back fuse connector as part of the kit. My fuse boxes are in the boot, all 3 of them and I used spare ways in the central ignition controlled box to power both the front and rear naxtbase dash cams.

i bought a few online from china only about 3 or 4 quid piggyback fuse connector makes fitting a dawdle
if you get stuck you can convert a phone usb charger that plugs into the ciggie lighter in a few minutes taking the wire from the sprung prong and the wire from the outer,extending them a little and using a piggyback

cant remember which fuse i used on my xc70 but its an ignition switched circuit

fuse box above passenger feet,connect/earth and feed up through pillar trim,along headlining to mirror,use a little self adhesive pad for the cable and job is done

I wired it in today using the supplied 12v adapter form lighter socket but due to it stopping the centre console closing I put in the rear seat 12v outlet but think piggy back will be much neater and simpler what size are the fuses mini or micro? So I get the right kit from eBay

soz just noticed this-on mine i thinkk its a micro fuse-its ex traffic car with lots extra wiring and boxes though so would be best to check your own,also i have fitted a few recently micro and normal so may get it wrong lol

I brought the nexbase genuine one it has both sized fuses for piggy backing. Genuine instructions also give a min and max range of fuses to use (says doesn't matter but advises against larger than 20A). Fitting using this is a real doodle. Hardest part is working out where to neatly and discreetly hide the cables.
