Dashcam fitting- part 1
Posted: Wed Sep 26, 2018 12:44 pm
I fitted a Nextbase dashcam to my facelift X350. Pretty easy, but as I couldn't find any guides, I thought I'd add one.
There's a "cigar lighter" accessory power point hiding in the glove box on my car, which made it very easy and saved buying any adapter cables. I think some X350 models don't have it, so this won't be as much use.
As the forum allows only 3 pictures per item, I'll have to split it into 3 parts:
Fit the cam with a rubber sucker, and trail the cable up to the edge of the roof lining, and lead it round to the passenger side A post. The cable, and the interference suppressor easily fit.
It may be necessary to get some slack in the roof lining by loosening the fixing screws (Philips head) behind the little plastic covers for the sun visor: and grab handles:
