DongarDashcam Power Adapter (3-pin Keyway 2 for Select Porsche Vehicles), Built-in USB Power Source, Easy to Install

Confirmed this adapter works with a 2016 Cayman. Made installation of a dash cam a breeze and allowed for a super clean install. I wish it was switched power only, however.

Saw this in my feed and picked it up to hopefully make a clean install for a radar detector or dashcam but it's taken me a few weeks to get the time.I have a 991.1 turbo s and the hardest part of the install is getting the light panel and plastics down. You really have to know where the clips are and pull quite a bit harder than expected.That said, this particular adapter and goes into the interior light panel for power.I like the fact that it's USB and comes with 3 cords (mini, micro and usb-c) or if you have something else like a usb-uniden connector you could plug that in.SUPER simple to install once you get the panels off without breaking them and it's pretty minimalist so also fairly easy to put back together, just a really clean install if you take your time....and even then it's like 15 min to do this.There are various different adapters depending on what you want to plug it into (switched or always on power, etc.) and I'm going to pick up another dongar adapter and see if I can plug it into one of the other ones and get both radar detector and dashcam going. I think I have room in the overhead area but it is pretty crowded.This is SO much nicer than a fusebox tap or pushing pins into existing connectors.100% recommended.Hope this helps!

It is a well made product and if I find someone to install it for me then I will add a review on function but I do not think this is what you want if you have not done multiple installs as it was easier to fish a wire around the whole windshield and dash than getting this to work. However, if you are good at this kind of thing, this would be the way to go.

I was not looking forward to hardwiring in my dashcam in my Cayenne the same way I've had to do in other cars. Normally you have to run a power line behind the pillar covers all the way to a fusebox or even worse a lighter socket where you can pick up a 12 volt signal. This thing is plug and play with the wiring that is already right in the rearview mirror area. It was so easy to pull off a single cover unplug the existing harness and plug this in between the two connectors. Then just a cleanly fit the wires back under the cover and use a super short usb to usb-c cable to your camera. It's absolutely awesome. I was up and running in less than 20 minutes without taking apart almost any bits of my interior. Really great product!

I recently purchased this Dashcam Power Adapter for my 2018 Porsche Boxster, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. This innovative device provides a seamless and efficient solution for hard-wiring a dashcam directly to the rear-view mirror power source.The compatibility with my specific Porsche model, the 2018 Boxster, was a significant factor in my decision to purchase this product. The 3-pin Keyway 2 design tailored for select Porsche vehicles, including the 991, 911, 718, and 981 series, ensured a perfect fit for my auto-dimming mirrors.One of the standout features of this adapter is the built-in USB power source. This thoughtful addition not only powers the dashcam but also provides an extra port for charging other devices, adding a layer of convenience to my driving experience. The incorporation of this USB port sets this adapter apart, as it adds value beyond its primary function.Installation was an absolute breeze. The user-friendly design and clear instructions made the process straightforward, even for someone like me who isn't particularly tech-savvy. The seamless integration with the auto-dimming mirrors made it virtually invisible, preserving the aesthetics of my Porsche's interior.I appreciate the attention to detail that went into crafting this adapter, ensuring it not only meets but exceeds the expectations of Porsche owners. The fact that it worked flawlessly with my 2018 Boxster speaks volumes about the quality and precision of this product.I highly recommend it for its compatibility, ease of installation, and the added bonus of a built-in USB power source. It's a must-have accessory for any Porsche owner seeking a top-notch dashcam solution.
