I’d like to see a video. I’m struggling to get constant power from the 5pin connector. I was thinking it was my trim, but if you got it to work, maybe it’s something I need to talk to the dealer about.
Ok I think I got to the bottom of this. That constant white/grey wire is not plugged into anything but gets some passive voltage from leakage, about .3V-.5V. Maybe after a few minutes time that’s enough to turn on the dashcam from the kit?
The hardwire kit I have is meant to be powered from...
I do not have start and stop feature but that’s a good call. Hard to say. It could also be an issue with the $2 prewired 5pin connector I got shipped from China lol. I don’t want to cut into the wires on the factory installed 5pin, but I might just to test and wrap them back up with electrical...
I tried measuring voltage on a male 5pin that I plugged into the connector above the dome light. I have 12VDC on one wire when the is on, but I don’t have a constant wire that turns on when the car is off. Could it be that certain trims don’t have the constant power wire connected? I have the...
The fuses are all there according to the fuse map. I could start pulling and testing every fuse to see what those wires are connected to. Or add fuses to the 3 missing ones, which don’t show as anything on the map.
I installed a VIOFO A329 2 channel and it only turns on after a few minutes of...
Congrats on the install!
I got my 5 pin connector and I’m testing with a multimeter. Black is definitely ground. White is 12VDC when the car is on, and 0V when it’s off. Yellow is 0V when the car is on or off… I haven’t seen any power come through on that one..
I wonder if it’s just an SR5...
This guy has it all figured out for the 4th gen Tacoma. He uses the 5 pin roof top connector without a dongar and gets constant power.

Using the connectors will make it a much cleaner too. You...
I’m thinking about putting the same dashcam into my SR5. It looks like the DOME fuse tap in the passenger fuse box might be best bet for constant power. Though as you mentioned, closing it up properly might not be possible..
I’m rethinking my dashcam choice entirely because I’d rather just hook...
I just got the Lasfit liners for the front and back seats and they’ve been great! They cover basically everything I want and they have a nice grip. TuxMat for the 5th Gen looks like it has slightly more coverage, but I couldn’t wait any longer to protect the floors.
Any word on when these will be available for the 2025 4Runner?
It looks like it took Tuxmat about 6 months to have a prototype out from when the 2024 Tacoma was released. Hopefully they'll be able to have this out sooner. My 4Runner didn't come with floor mats and I'd like get tuxmats, but I'm...
