Learn how to hard wire a dash camera and rear camera in your car or truck. All modern cars have airbags and many people run the power wires to the dash camera incorrectly which can be dangerous. In this video I show you how to hardwire a dash camera in a truck and do a clean install using the factory cigarette lighter adapter in a car so all of the wires are hidden. You can use this video to install any brand of dash camera but in this case I am using the Vantrue E1 and Vantrue N4 Pro with a rear camera and cabin facing camera.
