Dash Cam Hardwire Kit Cable - 13ft COOAU Dashcam Hard Wire Micro USB Ports for Car with Acc Detection 24H Parking Monitoring | 3 Fuses Types for Dash Camera D30S D20 D20S (CH410)

Item allows for a more professional installation, in which wires can be ran out of sight or out of your way and not dangling in your face. Has everything you need for installation, a great buy if you have a nice car and want a clean look.

Although I did buy the kit 'after the fact', it was worth the investment. I was not aware that there are some functionalities with the dashcam that are limited without this kit until I read the instructions. It is optional, of course, but it does make the system work better since it is charging from the battery and not the lighter. In my car, the lighter is only powered when the accessories are on/key in the ignition. In addition, it is supposed to record even if the car is not moving - like in a parking lot - if it gets hit. I can't attest to that - but that is what I read. Although it appeared that it was a diy installation - the manual does recommend a professional do the job. There were many parts of the instructions that I realized I could get wrong, so I asked my local repair shop to do the installation. He said it was straightforward, but at first was hesitant to accept the job; he warned that some of these devices, if improperly installed, can do serious damage and did not want to accept the risk. But he was up to the task and all went well.

I would like to give a personal experience review of the ST-CH410 Dash Cam Hardware kit. The kit came quickly in 2 days, and it was simply boxed including a fuse puller, adapting power connectors to fit multiple fuse box configurations. There was also included a battery protection power supply adapter that uses 3 wires. One black wire attaches to a screw to metal nearby the fuse block for battery – Neg. and the other 2 wires of which the Red one connect to an accessory terminal in the fuse block terminal that is Battery + Pos. while the vehicle is on ACC or Running mode. The other Yellow one connects to a Battery + fuse block terminal. A Double fuse holder is used to adapt to the fuse block, removing the existing fuse and plugging it into the Dash Cam hardware wire. See picture. A 5 amp Fuse from the kit plugs into outer socket, while original vehicle fuse plugs into the inner socket closest to the 2 pins that plug back into the fuse block. Wiring up the cam with the new micro-USB cord works just like the power supply that would normally come with the Cam, though it will now power the cam after ignition is off with lower power consumption, with a blank screen during any triggered recording function. Once connected the Cam settings turned on to allow recording for Motion Detection, or Parking mode. I will use the Motion Detection as my Cam records quickly when motion or activity occurs nearby the vehicle. I noticed immediate recording operation when moving near my car as shown in the video. The second half of the video shows that the rear camera records at the same time, though I edited out the overlapping portion. I will feel much more at ease knowing I have recorded video of activities in the area I park.

This doesn’t come with 3 tips for “parking mode”. Means that it only has ground, and power. If you want to install your dash cam for parking mode, then you need to buy a hard wire kit that has 3 lines on one end: ground, power AND accessory. But if you are to install your dash cam without parking mode, then this wiring kit is perfect!

Total crap! Sometimes the camera turns on, sometimes it does not. This was installed correctly, according to the instructions. I used to work for a car stereo installation company, and I know what I'm doing. This is a faulty product. I would appreciate it if the company would replace it. I can't send it back to Amazon because it's past the 30 days.

Does what it's designed to do. The only issue that I have (not with product) is that my vehicle is a 2024 and requires micro 2 fuse. I had to purchase micro 2 fuse taps.

This kit works great.

Very good, work perfect
