Nextbase Dashcam - Hardwire Installation

I'm trying to fit a Nextbase hardwire kit, I've run the cable under the headlining and down the windscreen side airbag cover, I'm following the process as shown here: http://www.fullfatrr.com/forum/topic23389....g+dash+cam

The passenger side trim needs to come off, however, mine has the airbag on/off switch in it, does this panel just pull off or is the switch a problem here?

I have just fitted same today- Nextbase 412. My airbag switch is on the panel on the side of the fascia. I removed it to get to the side of the fusebox. It was only a question of disconnecting the plug once the panel was free.

Someone may know differently but I would think the process would be the same for you.

Edit: I think I misunderstood and thought you meant the switch was on the side of the windscreen. On reviewing it I believe you mean the same as me. The panel referred to is the triangular one exposed when the door is open. Just release it and disconnect the plug. John

Thanks Weegie, one more question if I may, where did you connect the Earth to?

I drilled the frame that the side panel plugs into and used a small nut and bolt. I have used a self tapper on a previous ff John

Thanks, sorted now, I earthed it to one of the screws holding the glovebox on, works fine. I was being too gentle with the side panel, it came off fine with a good tug.

Power

All the power you need is in the sunroof switch area, I wired and fused mine in there, much easier and tidier. Many thanks

Pvw10 - That sounds interesting. Any more information?
I'm planning to hard wire mine at some point (probably when I do the deployable steps) so I'd be interested in doing it there. 2010 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE

I bought one of those little 12 to 5v converters added an inline fuse and snatched into the sunroof power as ignition controlled.
Easily enough room, only one short wire to the unit visible. Many thanks

Yes or very similar, I ordered from China and bought for about £1.50 each so bought 5 so could do other vehicles.
Worked a treat. Many thanks

Did you bury it behind the front interior lights consul and if so, how did you remove the big plastic cover with the lights and sunroof switches in ?

I removed the smaller piece, the little vented panel from memory by the roof switch, plus dropped the actual rocker switch out. Then you can do it all externally then push all the bits back in through said panel.
Had to fiddle a bit to get the wire to the cam so just worked it through and round, it can be poked under etc.
There was no need to remove the whole cluster that’s for sure. Many thanks
Paul
