My fix My fix is still working, I pushed the socket firmly into place so that I could see the end of the female connector on same level as camera casing. I fitted a 1m lead from Green and this fitted OK with no issues (i.e. it went fully home with a "click" )

Vroom, many thanks for the diagrams, very helpful. The usb socket is item 5 on the rain sensor, road camera version. Using the NextBase lining tool I was able to remove the covers around the mirror stalk and ease the large cover over the camera. I was then able to re-site the usb-c socket using a small screwdriver, this was rubber covered and held by friction in a housing in the camera cover. Lesson learned: do not buy cheap cables off Amazon, the usb-c connector seemed too small and lacked the internal springy guides that centre the plug over the blade in the socket.

I have recently fitted a NextBase dash cam using a shorter lead on the mirror console. The usb port disappeared into the housing and I can no longer get adequate engagement of the lead. How do I retrieve the socket?
