DongarDashcam Power Adapter (10-pin Type D) for Mopar Vehicles. Compatible with RAM, Charger, Challenger, Grand Cherokee, & More. Connects to Rearview Mirror, Built-in USB Power Source, Easy Install

I bought this to connect a Rove 2 4K Dual dash camera in my 2025 Ram 2500. Thanks to this connector, it took me about 30 minutes total to install both cameras and hide the wiring in the headliner. Well spent money!Not having to run wiring to the fuse box was such a time saver. I didn’t order this connector when I bought my camera because I didn’t know it existed.

First, do NOT buy the suggested right-angle dongles; this kit comes with 3 dongles, each with a different male connector, which is good, because the suggested ones I ordered were the wrong connector.I wish they would have clearly stated this; it would have saved me a few bucks.Also, your camera will only be powered on when your car is running or in accessory mode. If your camera is so equipped and you want it to be usable as a “parking monitor”, this is not the kit for you.The kit comes with an orange, plastic trim tool that made removing the cover off my 2024 Ram’s rearview mirror easier.Following are top tips for 2024 and later Ram 1500 owners: the rear view mirror cover is in 2 pieces (a top and a bottom); removing them is the most challenging part of the install, but it’s not too bad. Read on for a good method to use.Note, the upper cover has a small section that slides down very slightly from the head liner; slide it down.Remove the top piece first, by slipping the small end of the tool into the lower edge of the top piece (about an inch or so up from the bottom edge) and pressing a tab (which you can’t see…) and pulling gently but firmly down. It’s not too hard to find. After getting one side done, do the other.Then, use the same tool to help gently, yet firmly pry the lower cover down towards the dash. If you jiggle the cover, you will see where the resistance is, and it consists of two “bayonets” and slots, one on each side of the mirror stem, that you must uncouple.That’s the “hard part”. After that, unplug the mirror by pressing the tab of the plug up and pulling the plug. If you look at the part that will be plugged in from this kit, it will make sense.Then re-terminate the mirror plug into the adapter, find the correct dongle from the 3 choices, plug it in to the USB and then your camera, power on your car’s accessory mode, and test your camera.Don’t adhere the USB port to your window yet!After confirming function, tuck the wires into the lower cover, making sure to feed the red and black wires thru the small slot on the side (Ram must have anticipated this), line up the “bayonets”, and press the lower cover into place.Line up the tabs on the upper cover and press them into place, then slide the “movable” part of the cover towards the headliner until it’s flush. Find a good spot to adhere the USB port and you’re done.

Buy it. I know it's expensive, but worth it. Customer service is very good. also buy a right angle cable adapter.

This worked perfectly on my 2021 ram 2500 big horn. Keeps it simple and comes with all the wires and extras!

I was a little apprehensive as the compatibility chart (both here and on Dongar's website) does not list the Cherokee as compatible, only the Grand Cherokee. But it does work in my 2016 Jeep Cherokee. My vehicle has the auto-dimming mirror option; I know some vehicles have the manual mirror, and I don't know if there's still a passthrough of power up there for the microphone and assist/911 buttons, but if you've got power going up to the mirror, this should work.For installation, check around on the interwebs and you should find videos on how to do it. I'm *really* not handy with car stuff, but I was able to do this one without too much hassle. You take off the plastic trim (it's just held on with tabs and clips), then twist the mirror 45 degrees counterclockwise where it mounts to the windshield. The mirror is held on by a specially designed bolt head that locks into place when you twist it. Just twist and it should come off; put it back and twist the other way to lock it back on.Inside the mirror, the 10-pin cable should unplug from the mirror housing. This was the most difficult part for me; I couldn't get the plug to come out of the socket. After working at it for a while, I was able to get it unplugged. Note that the receptacle on the mirror itself is also a plastic housing; when you first look at it, it almost looks like you should pull the entire plastic portion off the metal frame for the mirror, but you shouldn't. I used a pair of pliers to pull the plug out of the plastic socket. It definitely took some patience and experimentation to get it done right.One of the videos I watched suggesting using a Dremel tool to carve a little gap in the trim piece to allow the wires for the USB to pass through to the outside of the trim. They also said it wasn't really necessary as there was enough gap between the trim and the windshield to let the wires through. They were right; I did put a little gap in, but definitely didn't need to.Once you've got everything back together, you'll see the USB plug has a little blue LED to let you know it's powered up. Find somewhere convenient to stick the adhesive for the USB, then mount your camera and you're good to go!

This item worked perfectly. It's very handy versus the other options to power my dash cam. Other options were to plug into cigarette lighter which means having the power cord dangling from the camera unless you route it under the dash somehow, or I could've hard wired it to the fuse block which of course involves routing the wire through the firewall and under the dash although doing that would've allowed me to use the parking mode on the camera which is no big deal to me. With this plug it runs from my rear view auto dimming mirror right to the camera that's next to the mirror. You will have to remove mirror housing to access plug but that pretty easy to do. I knocked off one star because I think it's way overpriced for what it is but I was willing to pay it for the convenience of an easy camera install. Remember that if using this for a dash cam you will lose the ability to utilize your parking mode on camera. I recommend this product

Works perfectly in my 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee!
