    Hey all,

    I searched for this, but could only find 2nd gen and how to make the lighter always on by soldering the fuse box etc, I am just wondering what wire you all use to have something always on under the dash?

    I am installing a dash cam and haven't taken anything apart yet, was just wondeirng before i start on the project if anyone has already tagged a wire..

    Just tap a fuse on the driver's side for something that's always on

    Some people tap the back of the rear view mirror for their radars or dash cams but I don't believe that's always on
