Dashcam power supply
 

Hi, I'd like to fit my dashcam which has a cigar lighter plug. The socket in the front center console doesn't workat the mo so will have to sort it.
Has anyone found a better way of powering a dashcam on a D4 or suggest a small/angled 12v plug so I can perhaps use the rear console socket which has restricted access?

Thanks Steve

In my D4 I used a power source from within the housing behind the rear view mirror. I'm sorry but I can't remember which wires I connected it to, but I discovered them with an online search if that helps.

The housing is released by unscrewing a bolt located inside the sunglass holder.

I dismantled the dash cam's fag lighter plug and wrapped the workings with insulating tape. It fitted it easily inside the housing. Plenty of room in there.
Good luck
Nick

Check out the following thread. I've provided the link to where the OP shows how the dashcam was wired in:
