    Hello,

    Looking to install a dash cam with all the fraud going on.

    Would like to tap into the power for the rear view mirror for a clean OEM finish, i need it to be usb c on the other end for the camera.

    Does anyone know what type of cable i need and where in Canada to buy?

    Thanks,

    I know you said you found it but Dongar is the primary business with adapters like that at least here in America.

    I think you’ll need a USB-A to C adapter for theirs though, haven’t seen nor looked for a USB-C one specifically.

    Thanks Icebear, was debating which brand to order, will go with Dongar now.
