The first job we're doing on our new Mazda CX-30, which has just replaced the Kia Sportage, is to install a dash-cam and its associated power supply. We're not using a power supply that plugs into the cigarette lighter port, as that wouldn't look very nice; instead, we're using one that's fused and which piggybacks over the Audio fuse available inside the passenger compartment. The wiring is completely hidden behind the interior trim and emerges in front of the rear-view mirror, immediately next to the dash-cam itself.
