Well, you'd need a buck convertor to reduce power to 5v anyway for most dashcams, so a few more switching components could be added. I wonder if there's space up there ?RichR wrote: ↑Sun Feb 06, 2022 1:06 pm I used the feed to the rear view mirror in my Subaru Outback - it had a 10A fuse, I guess because the powered version of the mirror (not fitted on UK models) has a few functions (compass, universal infrared garage door opener, dimming etc). Could put a small relay or transistor circuit up there to provide a higher current switched 12V when something low current like the lights or mirror power are enabled maybe.
I know some Skoda's have a mini USB connector in the mirror housing ready for use with a dashcam, but its only on LH drive vehicles ( connector is on wrong side of mirror for us ), but they chose not to install it on the Enyaq anyway !
