Fits all Toyota Tundra’s with an OBD Port

This power-packed OBD constant power adapter allows your dash cam to record events even when your vehicle is powered off.

Also included is a USB extension cable that allows you to run your power cable from power from your dash camera on your windshield all the way down to the your OBD adapter.

Here’s how:

Step 1: Plug in your OBD power pack into your OBD port that’s located about the drivers side kick panel (just above your left foot)
Step 2: Secure your dash camera to your windshield in your desired location. We always recommend placing it in the middle of the windshield, just below your rearview mirror
Step 3: Plug in your long USB power cord into your dash camera on your windshield
Step 4: Run your USB power cord wire up to the headliner console and conceal your wire by tucking it into the headliner console, then run the cable to your left to the drivers side A-Pillar.
Step 5: When you reach the A-Pillar, gently hide your wire under the plastic trim that covers your A-Pillar airbags
Step 6: When you reach your driver-side weather-stripping, simply pull it out from the door and run your wire behind the weatherstripping (in the door) from the A-Pillar down to the drivers-side kick panel.
Step 7: Remove your kick panel and run your wire across the kick panel and then up to your OBD connector. Tuck any extra wire in your kick panel. Reattach your kick panel.

Optional: Dash Camera Power Adapter

Fits: 2014 – 2021 Toyota Tundra only

The pin count for your dash camera power adapter can vary depending on your vehicle. Heres a quick guide to help you identify the right one:

7-pin:Typically found on 20032019 Toyota 4Runners with an auto-dimming rearview mirror. The adapter connects directly to the back of the mirror, no need to access the overhead console.
10-pin:Typically used in 20202024 Toyota 4Runners and is accessed via the vehicles overhead console.
12-pin:Typically associated with 2014+ Toyota Tundras, some 2010+ 4Runners and 20162023 Toyota Tacomas. These usually connect to the back of the rearview mirror.
14-pin:Typically related to 20052015 Toyota Tacomas or 20072013 Toyota Tundras. These usually connect to the back of the rearview mirror.

Again, this is a helpful guide but please be sure to check your vehicle’s pin count before purchasing to ensure compatibility!
