April 8, 20214 yr Hi I have a 2019 Forester eBoxer and I am going to instal a dashcam system (front and separate rear camera) which requires a permanent feed (even when the car is locked) and a switched feed (that only becomes live when the engine is on) Can anyone tell me the best location to make these connections please ? Thanks, Kevin.
May 1, 20214 yr Try this info. https://dashcameras.net/dash-cam-subaru-eyesight/ The fuse box is under the steering wheel. Lots of info on YouTube or Google I had this https://www.thinkware.com/Products/Dashcam/F800PRO installed by a mobile fitter, supplied and fitted for the cost of the camera on Amazon!! Only took him about 20mins Front camera fitted behind the rear view mirror, EyeSight works fine. Jim
May 3, 20214 yr I ran a fused line direct from the battery into the cabin (my live also powers the GFB electronic boost controller, wideband and boost gauge) The switched live I got from the fuse box with a fused jumper https://www.halfords.com/technology/car-audio/stereo-fittings/autoleads-blade-add-a-fuse-576436.html Found a switched live using a multi meter. On my SF5 it was fuse 9 I believe. My 10 inch display also automatically switches to rear view full screen when reversing, I did this by splicing into the reverse bulb signal wire.
