Can I hardwire a dashcam myself?

Is it wise to hardwire a dashcam to a car fuse box yourself or does it require specialist knowledge and equipment?

Hardwiring a dashcam yourself is possible, but it would depend on your confidence and knowledge with vehicle electrical systems and also the sophistication of the vehicle. If in doubt, we would suggest having it fitted professionally.
