I would like to install a dashcam in my Leaf, but I don't want an ugly power cable running from the windshield to the 12V outlet. Has anyone figured out how to run the wire in a way that's not obtrusive?
+1mazdaboi said:the center cluster comes out very easily, you could run the wires from the cam to the top center of the center cluster/audio/nav, then have the wires fed to the bottom of the dash where you can plug it in or hard-wire it to the 12V plug. takes just a few seconds to pull the black trim off by carefully prying it. It has I believe 6 pinch/pressure metal clips holding it in place.

Here comes me, with a video to show how I wired my dashcam on a 2013 nissan leaf.
With added benefit of recording 10 minutes after you leave the car and then shutting off.

No need to break your dash and run cables around.
Hope this helps someone!
