What type of pin connector does the rear view mirror have?

Hi,

I'm looking to install a dashcam in my 2021 Expedition Platinum, but I'd like to avoid splicing if possible. I came across this adapter (linked by another user in this forum), and my brother uses a similar setup in his car, so with that said, does anyone happen to know what type of pin connector the rear view mirror uses? Thanks for your time.

Went down that road and most of the time the easy way is not the best way. Problem is good dash cams have a power and a acc. I have owned many dashcams where you cut the power the last video file get corrupted as it did not shut down correctly. hence the red power and yellow acc. I ran 2 harnesses (one for cam the other for detector) along the pass side to the pass side fuse box. Was gravy.

Thanks for the reply and advice. I think I'll go the fuse box route. That said - which fuses did you tap for power and accessory?

bottom left fuse in the passenger kick panel will be switched with ignition. check you manual on which fuse that is and validate with a voltmeter as needed.

This works well for dash cams using miniUSB power
