I did exactly as jr.parrish did; used fuse 37. It’s worked flawlessly for about a month now and turns on/off with the ignition. I tested all the fuse positions down there and they all stayed hot until I found 37.

It looks like it's the fuse for the heated steering wheel. I am going to try that.

I installed the blackveu 750 2 channel last week,
I love the size of the cameras.
The app could use some work.

Anyone know now how to flip the main camera view?
And I believe mine only records for 3min at a time. Does his sound right

I eventually went this route. It seems that is what those wires are actually for.

I just used a metal file on all sides. I barely took anything off, but I did eliminate the ridges. No metal was even close to showing when I was done.

In the end, I did not need my add-a-fuse as I used the CBP22 wire.

Power wire run along passenger headliner and down pillar. Wire for 2nd camera ran along driver headliner and in the headliner across both doors.

The add-a-fuse was the only thing it throw me - turns out it has a bit of plastic to be trimmed off to get down to same size as a fuse and then seated fine in the passenger fuse panel. I also bought the Cellink B battery as it will provide a longer parking time than if hardwired and using the built-in low battery cut-off. I mounted that under the passenger seat - perfect fit and easy run of wire to the fuse panel - just followed the existing wire loom under carpet to door sill and back to panel.

All in all very happy with it. Clear, bright picture even in the dark.









I have to give you Kudos for a clean and stealthy installation.

If that location doesn't interfere with the sensor on the driver's side back of the mirror I'm going to mount mine in the same fashion. Did you have any problems with blocking the sensor? I'm assuming that it's purpose is for auto-dimming the headlights which I wouldn't want to give up.
