ZS EV Rear window car camera.

[Speckled Jim]

Hi, Has anyone fitted a car camera to their ZS EV rear window? If so where did you power it from?

Hello Speckled Jim
I have a nextbase front camera plugged into the USB by the rear view mirror and the rear camera comes from this to the rear camera under/alongside the edge of the roof lining. I got Halfords to do it to make it easier for me.

Check out previous posts including Accessories thread, there are quite a few with photos ...


= Guess this could be moved to Accessories or joined with other posts?

Thank you, I don't quite understand how you have plugged two camera's into 1 outlet by the rear view mirror? I already have a forward facing camera using that USB slot.

The nextbase front camera comes with a usb power outlet on it that allows you to (piggyback/daisychain) use the rear view camera, effectively powering from the same rear view mirror usb outlet.
Look at Halfords website where they'll show you.
To give you an idea.

I have no shares in halfords & lots of other places sell these & other similar makes.

It might be worth checking that your current dashcam doesn't already have an outlet for rear view camera.
