    Default Dashcam installer

    Anybody have a suggestion for a dash cam installer? I mirror tapped a few years ago, and I am aware that I could als fuse tap, but I am a but OCD. I would really love an install with wires cleanly tucked away.

    Get a voltage convertor (12v - 5v) and then splice, fuse (5A or less) and wire away.

    All in one solution here - no tools required.

    Reading the dash cam thread I'd want this too. If I find a decently priced installation place I can order a 3 units of the 2 way cameras. If someone has suggestions for Edmonton, even better. Thanks.

    If someone calls up other places to get quotes for installation please post here. I will do the same if I happen to talk to someone.

    I don't doubt I can physically do it. But I hate taking apart interior panels and hiding wires.
    I'll give Visions south a call.

    $200?! Front and rear? That seems outrageous just for install.

    Joe at AutoTech. His installs are clean and tucks everything nicely away.

    I didn't even ask for front and rear. I just asked about dash cam install and that's what he said.

    How long do you figure this takes? Bet his hourly rate is $150/hr and I would have guessed to do a clean install it was more than an hour.

    I installed my own dash cam (front and rear
    ), and helped a fellow beyonder figure out how to hardwire his as well. It took about an hour after jwslam helped me figure out where to connect all the wires lol. I tried calling places in the city, but nobody wanted to do it under $200.
