Dash cam question

[Savagesss]

I got a garmin mini dash cam and saw on a video a guy using the power from his rear view mirror to power it. i want to do the same thing but i couldn’t find a connector that was made for the camaro. Does anyone know what kind of plug that back box by the mirror uses?

You can get power from the upper console.

YES....but there is something very important to know....as you should know that in the current power cord to your cam, there is a small box, its a converter, as the car supplies 12 volts....and your cam uses 5 volts. not sure how comfortable you are doing this yourself, but you could find somewhere that normally installs dash cams and radar detectors and they could hook you up with no problem.
