First thing I did when I got my first Insignificant (bought new) home, was rip the dash out

Remove rear view mirror, find  a 12v ign controlled wire, join into that,, normally it's in the sunroof lead

Don't use interior lights they are earth switches. Only supplies when door is open

I haven't got a sun roof.

It will have the forward facing ADAS camera and probably auto dimming rear view camera

Only the Sri came with a forward facing camera, the Elite doesn't.

Do you have an auto dimming rear view camera?

[Doctor Gollum]

As a thought, why does the camera have to go by the mirror?

What’s to stop it getting mounted bottom centre? Hard wired to the fuse box an run the lead out the back of the display trim and have the camera just there

You can't see as far from down there

It would be easier to just take a photo of the reflections in the bonnet. Easier, but not as useful.

Sounds like an improvement over some dashcam footage that barely distinguishes between day and night

Nick Knowles says we've all got to have one, or he'll be out of a job on morning tv.

[Auto Addict]

Right, I've sussed how to feed the wire.

Which fuse would you tap into, the Astra K forum suggests fuse 31, I would have though fuse 26?

No.

I have to fit one in the Ftype at some point, that will be from a nominated courtesy light supply

So you can catch it's "thermal events" on camera?
