Is there a 12v wire behind back seat I can connect a dash cam to?

    I happen to now have two dash cams so I figured I would just put one on the rear window. I am just wondering if there's a 12v power source back there that is switched with the ignition. Or actually, I'm sure there is so I'm wondering if any of you have hunted one down that works well and don't mind sharing your secret.

    Thanks a lot!

    If you have the audio with separate amp, you're in luck. There is a connector you could piggie into.

    I do happen to have the JBL setup, do you know where it is by chance?

    My list of projects right now is OVERWHELMING!!! This is on there but it's going to be a month before I get around to it due to some changes to my travel plans for the year. I will post though when I can, I never forget but everything takes me awhile.
