Hi everyone,
I just bought my 2014 Cadenza Limited 2 weeks ago and now I have a Thinkware F770 with rear camera on order. I was hoping for some tips or suggestions on how to install the camera.
I am going to hardwire it to the instrument panel fuse box and run power to the front cam up the drivers side A pillar (removing with a screw, making sure wire is behind airbag, then tucking along headliner until its mounting point behind the mirror).
The rear camera is small enough not to interfere with the sunshade in the back, however I am not entirely certain how to run the wire from the back to the front. It comes with a 20 foot long cable. The two routes I was thinking were either tucking along the roofline and trying to get behind the pillar between the front and rear seats, but I am a bit hesitant of interfering with airbags. I was also thinking of running it down tucked behind the edge of one of the rear seats, under the sill plate trim or my Kia rubber floormats and the drivers seat then up through the dash, the a pillar and finally to the front camera.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a different route to take, I don't want to snake wires through and risk damaging the headliner. I am just rather concerned about interfering with the curtain airbags.
Thanks!
