How to hardwire dash cam to fuse box of a 2019 Acura RDX or other similar Honda or Acura vehicles. The dash cam I am hardwiring is a Rexing V1 using a hardwire kit. By hardwiring into fuse box, the dash cam turns on and off with the start/stop of the car with no messy cords.
Here are the links to the items in the video:
Hardwire kit – Looks like Amazon no longer sells the kit I used, but here’s one that is almost identical. Make sure to get either a mini or micro USB cable depending on your camera. This one is for a mini USB:

Check out my other video detailing my chrome delete (blacking out the chrome trim) using vinyl wrap on my RDX here: https://youtu.be/IGHkS80QS5s
Worked beautifully! Thanks!
For everyone asking about the A-pillar, it's super easy, you don't even have to remove the whole thing.
Step 1: Pull the rubber trim moulding around the door and A-pillar back (super easy to put back).
Step 2: Gently pull from the top of the A-pillar (near the roof), a single tab should pop off, don't pull back or pull anymore once you pop the first tab.
Step 3: You should have plenty of room to run the cable behind the airbag
Thank you very much for sharing info. I did this myself today and it works pretty well.
Thanks, saved me hours of frustration.
Hi! Do you know which fuse I can connect if I have parking mode on my dash cam? so It will record depends on its feature.
You still like dashcam
I wanted to see how to remove the pillar panel. Did someone else do that for you? Otherwise I would have expected you to record that.
Hey boss quick question.. by hardwiring your new acura rdx do you think would void the warranty if something went wrong ?
Great video. I have the RDX as well. Wish you had filmed portion of you removing panel where airbag is located. I’m a little hesitant on messing with that. Thanks.
Does your start-stop function still work?
I noticed after I hardwired my dash cam
My start-stop stopped working. I used the accessory (10A) and sunroof fuse (20A)
Since you used the option slot you didn't need to double up on the fuses. This slot provides power and is not connected to any other accessories. So only 1 fuse for the camera is needed.
I have the same car but my kit came with 3 wires GND, battery and ACC
Which one goes to the fuse and what do you do with the other one?
Also mine did it come with a fuse tap cable
Do you know what kind of fuse the RDX uses?
Thanks. Not that many DYI on YT for the 2019 Acura RDX. I got the A-spec.
Hello, can you tell me the fuse size? Is it mini? Low profile?
Hey I'm going to attempt this on my 2020 RDX and wanted to ask about the a-pillar removal. Did you disconnect the car battery by any chance? I heard some people do this as a precaution as the airbags are a sensitive area, kinda worried about that. The fuses are low profile minis I believe?
does this have constant power
Wow! Bet you’ll be getting tons of “special orders” from enthusiasts wanting this in their cars too!
