Your specific model, 6275 No Screw, is designed to be fixed using 3M tape and draws power from the rearview mirror plug. Ensure you have the correct model before proceeding with installation.
4.2 Step-by-Step Installation
- Prepare the Area: Ensure the vehicle is turned off. Use the provided pry tool to carefully remove the original rearview mirror cover.
- Mount the Bracket: For the "No Screw" model, the dash cam unit will replace the original cover. No separate bracket with screws is typically used for this specific model. The dash cam itself integrates into the existing housing.
- Connect Power: Locate the rearview mirror power connector. Use the provided front cam cable (Y-cable) to connect the dash cam to this power source. Ensure a secure connection.
- Install Dash Cam: Align the FITCAMX dash cam unit with the rearview mirror housing and firmly press it into place until it clicks, ensuring it is securely mounted.
- Install Rear Camera (if applicable): If you have a dual cam model, route the rear camera cable to the desired rear window location and mount the rear camera. Connect the rear camera cable to the main dash cam unit.
- Test Functionality: Turn on your vehicle's ignition to verify the dash cam powers on and begins recording.
