I run a BlackVue front and rear dashcam with power coming from the cig lighter port in the trunk. All the wiring is also similarly concealed. And no vehicle wiring is touched. I will get a inline battery pack soon which I will also tuck away in the trunk for parking mode recording.

It is very important to me that the whole setup had concealed wiring with OEM like outcomes and since I had practice on two prior BMWs, this was a walk in the park. Took 3-4 hours though to tuck wiring into trim.
I’m eventually going Blackvue as well. Can you power the battery pack from the trunk cig lighter as well?
