IOU4something, have you found a solution to this? I’m trying to figure out how to do something similar with my ‘18 diesel, and can’t find anything that helps. I need to hide my wiring better but am hesitant to take any panels off atm.
Get these and you don't have to go in from behind.

If you want it proper you route behind the Pass a pillar and join with the existing harness. Any other way is a safety hazard with the curtain air bag.
The panel is just clipped in with a retaining mechanism to keep the panel from flying away in an accident.
You should be able to just tuck the wire in under the headliner trim and then under the pillar garnish as well. I have a Gen I, but I was able to remove the light console in mine and fished the wire over to the pillar garnish and then just tucked it in. Either way will work.Hello all, so I'm going to see about hardwiring my dash cam in a couple of days and am not sure what fuse I should tap into. I understand that I should use one that provides power all the time as the hard wire kit I have has a automatic shut off if it goes under a certain amount of volts. Something else that would help is to know how to get the wire from the rear view mirror to essentially the glovebox area without breaking anything. Would the A pillar plastic trim be able to come completely off or is it attached closer to the dashboard making it not come off?if anyone has any videos or anything on how to do this I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
Unfortunately there’s a large enough gap between the windshield and the ceiling that the wire will fall out. Currently I have it attached to the windshield with wire clamps but I’d like to get rid of that. You know, make it look clean without having to worry about wires falling down.You should be able to just tuck the wire in under the headliner trim and then under the pillar garnish as well.

Can you take a picture or two of the windshield / headliner area?Unfortunately there’s a large enough gap between the windshield and the ceiling that the wire will fall out.
