Install your dash cam the smarter way - 2020 Subaru outback install in 5 mins
Dash cam install from Dongar Technologies Simple USB Port connector.
This simply connects your Rear View Mirror (With Auto Dimming function ) Power to your Dash Cam.
Note: This install does not support constant power, the Dash Cam power on and off with ignition. So this will not work if you nee parking mode active.
The Dongar technologies web site calls for a '5 pin connector ' for Subarus, but after research I found the '10 pin Type B connector' (for Lexus/Toyota) works on my 2020 Subaru Outback.
There are a multitude of vehicle connectors available even the Ford Bronco.
Please ensure you look at your rear view mirror connector site to ensure you obtain the correct connector for your vehicle.
This is a great solution for 'Subies' , particularly because of the 'Eyesite 'technology which would make running wires in the head lining difficult and may affect the 'Eyesite' technology.
Support this Channel - purchase the 10 pin Type B connecter : -

    Thanks for the video. I was looking for an easy and safe way to hide the long usb wire to plug into the lighter socket and I bumped into your video. I immediately bought the Dongar connector and a short angled usb cable and connect my R2-4K Pro on by 22 Outback in less than 10 minutes. Since I didn't start the car when I installed the dash cam, I didn't have to recalibrate the compass. The compass and eyesight both work fine. I think the Dongar adaptor is rather pricy ,but it solves the hassle of routing a long cable for me, so I think money well spent. Thanks.

    Keith thanks for this excellent tutorial. I purchased the 10-pin Dongar connector for my 2021 Subaru Outback Touring XT and it fit perfectly and it worked like a charm! BTW I'm using the ROVE R2-4K Pro Dash Cam for it's small footprint and excellent 4k recording capabilities. I only needed a front facing dash cam so this worked out for me quite well. BTW I ordered a short USB to USB C cable with a right angle connector on the "C" portion of the cable as the one supplied from Dongar was just way too long. BTW I never even have heard of Dongar Technologies until I stumbled upon your video. I'm so glad I did. Thanks again!!!

    Hi Keith, Do you know whether the power to the dash cam from the mirror stops when the ignition is turned off? If not, I would be concerned that the dash cam could eventually drain the car battery. thank you for the video.

    • @keithrudge
      @keithrudge Рік тому

      Yes, it turns off. it does not drain the battery, the Garmin powers off when the ignition is turned off. You do loose the feature if the car is bumped while you are away and because there is no power it doesn’t record that event.

    • @keithrudge
      @keithrudge 2 роки тому

      Found a random comment online to say the recommended five pin didn’t work, but if you simply take the connector out you can easily see a five pin does not work on later model Subarus. I have had no problems, it turns the camera on and off with the Ignition and it has not affected any other electrics in the car. I can say it works very well with no issues at all. If you follow the link on Amazon it does say out of Stu k but if you go ahead and order it is in stock!!!! If you have any other questions just let me know. The install was easy snd 5 mins or 10 mins max…😎
