Front and Rear dash Cams

[Mickcc]

Looking to install a Front and Rear Cams to my VF
looking for any help and ideas like using a snake to get the wires from the sunglass holder to the brake light in the roof
and how and what wires to connect to get 12 volts from the map reading light to power
up a 12v to 5v inverter to run the cams

cheers

Thanks Lout that`s a start going to put one also in my Toyota 105 Series
I`ve got the green tongue but will do the same job just a different color
at least I don`t intend to want to go any where near the Pillar or Airbags

just don`t disconnect it
the 12v to 5 volt inverters are in the mail and should arrive soon

I've just read somewhere that the airbag is not in the pillar but in the roof.

Yes. Side Pillar Air Bag thread. Although it does specify the VF.

It’s along the rail. It is in VE as well.
Located behind the A-pillar and along the rail to the C-pillar.
