Evening all,
I've just leased a VRS Estate (2019) and am trying to hook up a front & rear dash cam setup (Viofo A129). Front camera is in and working great (although I'm currently using the USB socket rather than hardwiring - future task).
I've read through all the dash cam related threads on here but can't seem to find any guidance on routing a rear cable to the front via the headlining.
I have so many questions.
I am planning to order a second rubber conduit for the boot lid as per below:
The part number - I believe - is 5E9971829A. I'm guessing my nearest main dealer will be able to order one for me? If not, any suggestions?
I have also read that removing the tailgate trim might destroy the plastic retaining clips - is this correct? And if so, what replacements should I be ordering?
Next, I understand the DAB antenna is likely to be in the off-side boot window, correct? In which case, I hope I"m right in thinking it's commonly advised to route the cable along the passenger side of the car (RHD). That being the case, can anyone give me a bit of a step-by-step guide on which parts of the headlining to loosen? It seems firmly secured by the grab-handles then tucked into door seals at the edges without much room for manoeuvre. Does it simply need lots of encouragement with trim tools? (Side-question: are there any alternative routes lower down in the car...? The end destination for the cable is the the rear-view mirror area.)
Really appreciate any help you good folks can offer.
