2025 Mirror Dashcam Power Adapter Recommendations

[Cactusjk]

I bought a Dongar 5 pin connector and it looks like the 2025 is different than my 2024. Any recommendations on which one to get?

I used an OBD to USB cable like this. Wasn’t too bad running the it from near the review mirror down to the OBD port.

Thanks. Still interested if there is a Dongar adapter that works.

The 5 pin connector might still be in there but in a different spot?

I just put one in a few days ago on my 2025 BS Badlands SAS. Used the 5 pin connector. It is in a different position than the video shows, but it is there. Should have taken a photo, but didn't. It is more forward but just look for the 5 pin wiring connection. It was a little tight getting them apart, but I was able to do it. And it was harder to get the housing off than the video showed, but was able to do it. Worked great to attach a Garmin Dash Cam X110. It works great.

Perfect! I think I saw it but ran out of time yesterday. Looks harder to disconnect in that position since i can’t see the tab.

Exactly - but it is there. I was able to disconnect after a few tries.

Thanks! I have come full circle and am now back to a 2025 BS Badlands after trading in my 2023 Bronco Two Door.

Nice! What was that decision process? What did you prefer in the BS over the Bronco Two Door. So far, I am really really impressed with by 25 BS Badlands SAS - but it only has 500 miles on it . I even averaged 32 MPG on a 106 mile trip (with 3k elevation change each way) yesterday. Anxious to really use it getting to trailheads in Colorado this summer.

We prefer a smaller profile here in LA and honestly the BS Badlands has more storage room. The 2025 update is amazing and having done the Moab Off Rodeo in a BS think it is perfectly capable. Love the 360 cameras now.
