Installing my newly bought dash cam

[Sheena]

I'm in the process of setting up my new dashcam and was hoping some of you experienced folks could offer a few tips. I've never been to car electronics, and I don't want to make any errors!

Are there any recommended wire hiding spots?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Sneaking in the dash cam wire is important to have a clean look. It is also important to have it connected to the OBD-II port. It’s a safe and dependable power source for your camera. There are many OBD-II adapter kits available on Amazon and eBay.

It should be under the hood. Weird place to be in.

Try to check the manual. It's on pages 8-4 (do-it-yourself) in Motor Compartment Check Locations in the manual.
