Jay888 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Hello All, New here and a newbie to Cars in general. Just got myself a mk3 Ford Focus 2013 and also just picked up a Nextbase 522GW. I'm planning on hardwiring this(first dash cam), but unsure which fuse to use under the passenger side. Can anyone point me into the right direction or share any suggestions and advice on which to use and a guide in general to install the hardwire kit? Pretty new to this, so any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did think that originally, but they're charging £50 which is more than I am looking to pay, so was hoping to do it myself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might be of some help, you'll just need someone to post a suitable fuse that is ignition controlled... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or a permanent live supply if you want the camera to continually record when the vehicle is not in use or to use "Parking Mode" Did you buy the official Nextbase Hardwire Kit?
