Immediately I realized the problem. In my Elantra the dash cam shuts off automatically when the car is off which is NOT the case for the Mach E. I searched for some solutions and it was either hardwire the dash cam to the fuse box, pay $300 for the Fitcamx or buy this dongar adapter. I love the dash cam that I have and really preferred to keep it so I really didn’t want to buy a new one. I also have no idea how to hardwire a dash cam so the dongar made the most sense. I’m a 20 something year old woman with zero experience doing anything with cars and I was able to get this hooked up in under 10 minutes. It was pretty straightforward, no tools or experience required. The hardest part was popping off the plastic piece and I use “hard” very lightly. You pretty much just unplug the mirror, plug in the adapter and then plug the mirror and dash cam into the adapter. It could not be any easier. I watched a quick youtube video just to see where the routed the wire and stuck the adapter. Now my dash cam powers on and off with the vehicle. No more worrying about battery drain Review: Easiest way to install a dash cam - I use this to install a Garmin mini three dash cam in my Ford Mustang, Mach, E, and it was seamless. Very easily installation. Just dropped right in and everything worked. Easily able to hide all the cords and connectors behind the plastic trim pieces, so it looks like a very professional installation. Four months on, no problems with operation either. I would buy one of these for a Dash cam installation in the future. ## Features - FAST AND EASY INSTALLATION WITH NO PERMANENT VEHICLE MODIFICATION: Enjoy a true plug & play installation process as this dash cam power adapter plugs directly into your rearview mirror wiring, leaving no permanent modifications to your vehicle and keeping your dash cam installation completely hidden behind your rearview mirror. - COMPATIBLE DASH CAMS: This Dongar dash cam adapter is compatible with USB-powered dash cams including: Garmin Mini 2, Garmin Live, Garmin 47, Garmin 57, Garmin 67W, Vantrue N2 Pro, Vantrue N4, Vantrue N5, Fitcam, Viofo, 70Mai, and all other USB-powered dash cams. - COMPATIBLE ACCESSORIES: This Dongar rearview mirror adapter is also compatible with other USB-powered devices including radar detectors and GPS. - OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE: This dash cam adapter is recommended for USB-powered devices drawing less than 2A at 5V to ensure efficient heat management.

I was tired of the wires hanging down. I’m also not a fan of running long cables across my vehicle. This is nicely tucked up out of the way. It just plugs in easily. It works great and my dash cam powers upon starting my vehicle. You can’t beat it for the money. I would recommend and would buy it again. I paired it with the AZDOME Dash Camera Mirror Mount for my ROVE R2-4K dashcam. ## Frequently Bought Together - Dongar Dashcam Power Adapter (5-pin Type F) for Select Ford Vehicles.
