The only proper video on YouTube lol, thanks mate.

Nice job. Your instructions on locating an ACC fuse was the best. And the glossary of subjects was another best.
Thanks!

[masuzyokamanga]

The best guide I've ever come across. Thanks

[billybrown]

Finally found a video to explain which amperage of the fuse to use. So Jump from A to Z. Thank you.

What an amazing step by step instructions and a very clear, descriptive video on YouTube I have watched on this topic. Thank you very much.

[Jetjai]

Thanks for a very useful video, particularly on the correct way to use ‘piggyback fuses’ 👍

[bearpuf]

Very much appreciate your video. It's clear, descriptive and clearly describes how to accomplish the project.

It always helps to look at the fuse layout diagram, so you know you are not tapping a critical fuse. another way to make sure you have proper orientation of your tap. first place it in, with only the tap fuse placed ( the one that will be powering your camera ) plug in tap if you have power on your tap wire, then it's placed correctly, if not, reverse the position of the tap. in any case once you know the correct position, put the original car fuse in the tap slot for it. doing it this way might be easier then trying to poke a probe into a tiny slot in a hard to reach area, less chance of shorting something out as well.

That was exactly what I needed to know! Other sites did not mention positive and negative posts with fuses removed. Also good information on the fuse taps with the correct polarity and amperage. Thank-you👍

Can't believe you sell a hardwire kit at $35 Canadian and don't throw in the fuse adapters. It's essentially an overpriced box of wires.

Thks for this video, i washed 5 times and now i know how to wire my dashcam thank you again

[Essamajicpeach]

Awesome bro. In my religion we respect our teacher alot. I learnt from you. God bless you.

[azzammeeralam]

This video answered a lot of questions, I am glad I found it

[borndiy]

Good info on this wiring. Some others don't show connecting to battery & using the connections you mentioned. Think I will need someone to install for me. Only thing I did not see was the wiring coming back into the cab or how you got the wire to the battery. Since someone else will install for me, don't need to know. Maybe I missed a step. Thanks again for this video.

Great explanation, greetings from Poland.

2:32 constant power is not only on when the engine is off, its on when its both on and off

[antonyrajarathinam]

Few minutes I felt in electronics class. Good job 👍🏻.

Finally, my F800PRO Parking mode is working.
The problem is on my hardwire cable, the label on the RED wire’s fuse cover stated as the Continuous supply.
Then, follow what you said on YELLOW cable to the B+, and the RED to the ACC, that’s it!
Thanks.

Thank you so much for the video!! This is the best video I saw for installation hardware kit.

Your video doesn't show how to run the wires from the engine PDC to inside the cabin so it can connect to the dashcam! We just supposed to figure that one out? What do we do remove the dashboard and fish it through??
