Don't forge to disconnect your car battery prior to the installation of the dash cam. You don't want your airbag to give you a scare.

Currently in the process of doing this to my GTI. Following both your videos (this and the wiring vid linked in the description). These are great, very detailed instructions. Thanks! I would recommend being VERY careful when removing the little tab on the A frame that says "Airbag". Mine snapped super easily about two minutes ago 😅. Seems like something that would be cheap to replace or I might just glue it back after. But be careful!!! Edit: This has taken WAY longer than expected. Please note, this video makes it look much easier than it is haha. Getting the wires under the light fixture from the windshield, and feeding the wire through the roof takes FOREVER. But I still would have never been able to do this without great guidance in the video. If you're reading this, feel free to ask me if you're stuck on something because I probably made every mistake possible 😂. I'm sure ill see the notification and try to reply.

I'm about to do in my golf too, waiting for the dashcam to arrive, can i know what wire have you used to find your way from the light fixture to the A pillar? i can't find anything similar to buy

@@AhmedSam the cord in the package that came with the camera was long enough. I used an old wire hanger to guide it through and believe me, it took forever to get it right. He makes it look way easier than it really is. You might want to find someone to help, would have been easier with a second set of hands. I was doing it alone in the dark during a power outage which also didn't help

Attention plugging one SAE cable into another inverses the cables (black becomes red and vice versa). In your case things worked fine since you plug 3 cables and you re-inverse them. Other than that great video. Thank you !

I'm only using 1 SAE connector, with the 'plug' side wired correctly. The 'socket' side (hot) must have the exposed connector as negative.
