Rear dash cam

You are welcome! Let us know how it goes.

I am also considering to have one for the back as well. But I will probably just use the existing 12V socket in the trunk.

Ed,
Did you ever install a rear dash cam? wonder if you have detail info on removing all the trim parts

Thx
Wgo

If you are running wires through the ceiling and/or pillars, be mindful of the airbag location. If you are crossing an airbag you could impede its function.

Cables fit under the headliner and A pillar very nicely using a plastic pry tool. There is no need to remove or even pry up anything to fit the cables. You simply need to give the cable a good push with the round edge of the pry tool. When you are running the cable down the A pillar, push the cable under the black weather strip.

As for hardwiring the dashcam, DO NOT use interior light fuse because the power to this fuse shuts off once you lock the vehicle. So this is NOT CONSTANT power.

Good luck!

Hello,

I'm planning to hardwire a dashcam for my gf's 2022 Q3. Can anyone confirm if Fuse 16 (Audi Phone Box) for Always On and Fuse 40 (12-volt socket) for ACC works?

Thanks!
