How to HIDE Dash Cam Wires in 5 Minutes (NO Tools Required) Step by Step

Important: Do not obstruct your airbags!
Alot of people dont realize how easy it really is to hide the dash cam wires or cables from inside your car. I show you how to hide the wires with no tools... just my pretty little fingers. Once you watch this video you will have the general idea to hide the dash cam cables from any vehicle.
If you need to hold your wires up somewhere you can use some kind of tape like electrical tape or wire adhesive clamps which you can find here: amzn.to/2UMvQRj

The fact that almost all new cars don't have integrated dash/rear cams from the factory that record collisions is insane to me, should have been a feature for the last 20 years.

[@spurriousgod]

I'd be happy if new cars just came with a usb power port up near the rear view mirror, so you can plug your dashcam in there instead of running this stupid wire all through your car.

[@josephnox1759]

It probably keeps insurance's in business that's why these ass buts probably don't do it

[@melissajewell5093]

Valid point. Only not everyone purchasing dash cams & attempting to hide them are driving cars, pickup trucks or SUV'S. Some of us are driving much, much larger vehicles Like 80,000lbs more! And We're buying redundant electronics because We have to protect ourselves, our commercial licenses & careers. We cannot simply rely on the dash cams that the majority of trucking companies have in their trucks, to exonerate us. Heck, We don't even have access to those dash cams. Only the safety department of the company does. And even though Were performing a skilled trade in which we had to receive training, like actual schooling, testing, re-testing, going out on the road with a Mentor & implement our trade 11 hours every day, plus know our trucks inside & out, thanks to the mandatory DAILY pre-trip & post-trip inspections, DOT surprise inspections, etc....any accident happens & it's US that have to prove our innocence or risk an entire career & financial burden it cost us...all because someone didn't want to take responsibility for causing an accident because they were distracted driving because they were texting their teenager (or work, or insert whichever applies in your situation) AND, it's a little presumptuous to assume everyone driving is going out to buy a NEW car. And many are a lot older than 10 years old. Mine is for sure. My money goes into my truck, not my 4 wheeler that I drive less than 48 hours a month when I'm lucky enough to get home time

I was expecting this to be WAY harder, I thought "Man, i'm gonna have to unscrew some screws and pull of plaster panels, maybe I need some special tools."- I'm glad I found this video while searching for tutorials online, it was simple.

[@uniquerod52]

1:14 about that, I think the airbag goes above and across those crack line all the way to b-pillar which means that your wire is in the way. That is really dangerous.

[@macgyvervanschwartzenstall4662]

Only if you need the airbag:😂

[@jimcinema]

I did use a tool (a paint can lid opener) which I ran down the seams as I pushed in the trailing cord. And I also used this in a car without side curtain airbags. With the addition of a lid opener and with no airbags to compromise, this is a great video!

[@ibrahimeltony4865]

You are the man that I have been looking for. The only one I saw who installed the camera at the rear plastic trim of the mirror and I see it works fine. This is instead of the wind shield.

Great videos!!! Watched about a half dozen videos on dash cam installation and hiding the wires. Yours is the one I went with. Installed it today. No tools. All my wires absolutely hidden expect the tiny bit that hooks up to the dash cam on top of the windshield. I have a 2015 Acura ILX.

I restarted this just to count how many times he says "here" and only now, noticed the last comment asking for the "here" count. So, HERE it is: 57. For what it's worth, he only says "there" 8 times.

[@OptimismNinja]

[@AM-vi4fw]

I went ahead and jumped forward a bit but overall it's a good informative video that helps people that might be daunted with this job.

[@Cinnjerm24]

Awesome video. Was looking at getting a dash cam and the video from the manufacturer just glossed over this step of the setup process without providing any real details about how this is accomplished. Thanks for filling in the gap for me.

[@m3lowiesvlog715]

Very informative,hella straightforward! thanks for sharing the technique!

[@billseaman313]

Not a good idea to cross the a-pillar trim as the curtain airbag pushes out from underneath this trim. Crossing the a-pillar is very likely to interfere with airbag deployment. You should take the a-pillar trim off and secure the cable such that it can’t interfere (keep it on the forward side of any part of the airbag). At a minimum, see if you can tuck it between the windshield and the a-pillar trim, NOT the door side of it.

[@joshhancock9563]

I thought this when installing mine (before watching this vid) but u have to go by the air Bag Area so there’s really no other option

[@Ta3s11]

@@joshhancock9563 just take out the a-pillar trim, better safe than sorry when you get in a crash and then airbag is useless🙃

[@noahqiao6624]

This is absoulutely right

[@TheXenogias]

psi of airbag deployment is so high a cable isnt gonna affect it

[@louiecastle462]

Lucahz it won’t, but the wire then becomes a bullet in a crash. Just take off trim and place the wire behind

[@mvpillai1]

You inspired me to get off my butt and install cameras in both cars. It took a little longer than 5 mins lol, but it got done a heck of a lot quicker with your guidance. Thanks again!

[@mullerscott]

There's a reason they tell you never to obstruct the airbag. If the airbag deploys it will shoot that cable at the passengers at 200 mph. This install is incredibly dangerous in any vehicle with side curtain airbags.

[@BeeWhistler]

I wondered about that. Guess I gotta find a video that explains that bit better.

[@joshhancock9563]

I debated this as putting mine in .. what other option is there really? Even if u don’t tuck it in u have to go by the air bag ?

[@EpicGamer-ny1fu]

@@joshhancock9563 do your research and properly remove trim and run wires behind airbags if you need to.. zip tie them to the chasis or existing wiring but never fasten them to the airbags or obstruct the air bags. But it is best to avoid those areas of the car if possible

Excellent - Just installed a Garmin mini into a 2013 UK model RR Evoque sport exactly as you showed. There were other vids doing a major dismantle of trims and airbag housings and special tools - I had this done virtually invisibly in 15 mins start to finish. Just gently levered up the centre consul mouldings with a clean screwdriver and pushed in the cable with a plastic pen top! Thanks WorldofTech

[@gr23452]

What about the curtain airbags. My dash cam has huge warnings about not tucking wires if you have curtain airbags.

[@human_hope]

What did you end up doing

[@RingaTech]

Don't follow this advice. The wire goes OVER the curtain airbag. If airbag gets deployed, the cable will pop out, and with the airbag speed, it may pull the camera with force and hit you or something, and you may have a liability issue. The correct way is to remove the A-pillar trim, and put the cables so that they go below the airbag (there are usually other cables there you can follow), and don't get in the way. Be carefull because A-pillar removal, in some cars, should be done with care. Some have some "snaps" tethers that if you pull too hard, they break, and you have to replace them. Check for other videos on how to do that, it can be done without breaking them. But don't be lazy and do it like in the video. It's stupid.
