VIOFO HK4 Hardwire Kit with 8pcs Full Set Circuit Fuse Tap, Type-C Port, for A329 series/A229 series/A119Mini2/A139Pro/WM1/T130 Dash Cam

Super easy to install. Granted I dug up a YouTube video for my specific vehicle but the process was simple. After installing the fuse taps (make sure they are the correct orientation), the camera fired right up. The harness allows it to record even when the car is off which was something I really wanted available. After reaching a certain battery discharge level, the camera shuts off rather than continue to drain.Running the wiring was the most difficult part. I'd recommend picking up a trim removal kit. They're cheap but will save your fingers and potential damage when prying off plastic tabs.Various fuse taps are included so there should be no issues with different vehicle makes and models.

Works as advertised. The parking mode on my dashcam now immediately kicks in (no delay) when the engine is turned off.The cord is sufficiently long for my vehicle (SK Forester) and seems to be durable.So far this has been money well spent.

**This is an update to my review. Viofo sent me a message after this review posted and offered to send me a replacement wire harness. I agreed and had the harness in hand within 2 days. I removed the defective harness and installed the new one and everything worked perfectly. I still use Viofo exclusively because I think their cameras are quite good. This is the first time I had to use Viofo support for a defective item; and Viofo came through. Viofo really does make great cameras that are very reliable and at a good price point. It was nice to see that Viofo does back up their products when you need it.**I bought this as part of a package deal with a camera for a Christmas gift last year. I finally got around to installing the camera this weekend. I had an awful time getting ACC power to work; but after an hour or so messing around; it miraculously started working. I was never able to get battery (parking mode power) to work. So, after spending hours getting this to work; it stopped working after I buttoned everything up.This isn't my first time wiring a car with a Viofo Camera and hardwire kit. I have done three of my own cars and two of my children's cars. This is clearly a defective hardwire kit. I was surprised to get defective hardware from Viofo; but it happened. I'm sort of disgusted because now I have to buy another and wait. Viofo needs to improve their quality control with their supplier.

I got this to be able to use the parking sensor/recording for my Viofo A229 Plus dashcam system. The package includes fuse attachments for every type of fuse used. Compare to what your vehicle has and attach to the power leads. The most difficult part is deciding which fuse to use - you want to stay away from vital systems like abs braking, engine cpu, etc, instead using something like interior lighting or the like. The other thing is that you need a multimeter or some other way to test the fuse socket to check weather the socket is powered with the ignition off or if it's ACC controlled. You also need to determine which side of the socket has power because the adaptors have an orientation and have to be plugged in with the powered side out. So it's a little finicky to get everything right but I'm not particularly handy and I was able to do it. It would have been nice if they'd used an easier connector then the crimp style but it worked.There is a switch included that allows you to select how low to take your battery before the camera system powers down. I set it in the middle and we'll see if the vehicle starts after 48 hrs. You also have to set the system for parking before it will work. Lots of choices there so I'm going to have to see what works for me.All in all this works fine, I'm a little disappointed that it wasn't included with the camera system. It seems like a bit of a bait and switch to advertise parking sensors but "oh yeah, you have to pay an extra $40 dollars for the part that allows you to use that feature".

Seems like good quality. I got two and both have been working fine for many months. Love that it comes with multiple fuse connectors, I’ll definitely use the leftovers for other projects. They were quick and easy to install.

Pretty easy to set up

Wanted to hardwire for 2024 Subaru Crosstrek and hid all wires from driver and passengers. The dash cam did not come with the needed wiring for this, just a wire to plug into 12v outlet.Did have trouble with testing and targeting right car fuses to use. At first, I had both wires tapped to unused fuses that both operated all the time (ACC), so unit would never go into parking mode. So I became increasingly concerned about battery drain. Finally retested fuses with my multimeter and moved ACC fuse tap to another fuse and voila, it began working exactly as intended. Note: Email support from Viofo was unclear on this scenario and recommended various troubleshooting tips in the wrong direction.Had a little trouble crimping the wires to the leads. Bought a tool from Lowe’s for this, but would have been nice to know on the front end.I also installed the rear camera upside down when attaching it to the glass, but the dash cam apparently understood and self-adjusted for this.I was reluctant to use parking mode at first due to concerns that the dash cam might drain the battery. But two things worked out to offset. First, the wiring to the fuse box included a little rectangular power supply regulator that allows you to adjust at what battery level the unit will self-deactivate. I set this to the highest setting. Second, with the wiring fixed, parking mode activated automatically and I was able to configure the dash cam to shut down after 1-2 hours of the engine being shut off. I haven’t tested the event-based recording function so far. I bought the dash cam mainly for a new teen driver and insurance reasons.
