Hello,
Just wanted to say thank you for this write up. I was able to wire my dash cam that i had on my previous vehicle to my Sportwagen.
I did a few mistakes though, but eventually got it setup correctly.
First mistake was I didn't use the 12V adapter at first (quickly figured out that the camera won't work without it, doh!), and second mistake was I mounted the dash cam behind the rear view mirror but to the left hand side, hence blocking the ambient light sensor on the back of the mirror (Auto Dimming Mirror). It wasn't so bad, but during dawn/dusk it would get confused. So I moved it to the right, and all is well.
Thanks again.
