Hard Wiring Dashcam - G80 Sport Prestige - Quick Tip

[DarrickC]

The hardwiring of my Rexing V5.5 dashcam came to a screeching halt this evening as I realized the hardwiring kit Rexing sells (Or at least the one I bought) uses micro size fuses and not the low profile micro fuses used in my G80. A quick log onto Amazon, and new taps will arrive tomorrow so I can continue. For those planning to hardwire their dashcam or radar detector, remember to look for LP Micro size fuses. Good luck.

Where were you planning to ground it?

Correction - Yes I learn from my mistakes - it is a Micro 2 fuse type Not a LP micro. Here is what I re-ordered from Amazon.

Sharing my fail so you won't.

The video's I watched showed grounding it to a bare metal screw near the fuse panel. Do a search on YouTube.

Which fuse did you do the fuse tap on? And which fuses 10, 20 did you use and in which spots on the add a fuse device?
