Not compatible with the fuses in my car. I drive a 2013 Toyota Corolla LE. The fuse adapter is longer than my fuses so the fuse won't sit in the adapter and the adapter won't plug all of the way in. My Nextbase dash cam won't function on the power form the cigarette lighter outlet and I had hoped hardwiring it would help.

I recently purchased this to hardwire into my Prius. The fuse connections included in the kit are not the correct size. I had to buy a new adapter from amazon. 2021 Prius use the mini low-profile fuses.

I got this with the intention of hard wiring my camera in, but when I figured out where my fuse box was at I decided I would probably wait to use it until I get a new vehicle.

Package didn't contain the right fuse for my car (2017 Prius) so I haven't actually used it. Eventually I may actually spend the time to find the correct cable.

Dash cam wires should come with the unit. I dont like that I was forced to pay extra but what the heck, we will see how they hold up.

Only needed if you need to hide wires. My work truck has a 12v on the top of the dash so I did not need this kit

This is great to have, if you want your camera running 24/7 nonstop. Will drain your battery. Will be retuning this for a refund.

This item as supplied is not suitable for my car. I had to contact the manufacturer in the United Kingdom to get the correct fuse tap cable.
I could not recommend this item unless it was purchased from Nextbase UK with the dash camera as well.
However, it may work with American made cars but not with cars such as Toyota and Honda.

Doesn’t fit ford fuse boxes as they use micro fuses. This kit isn’t compatible, wish it said on the box.

I purchased this kit to install my NextBase camera in my 2019 Passport. Unfortunately NextBase does not include the needed fuse splitter to complete the install. I reached out to their support and they told me they can only issue the correct cable to people that live in the mainland UK, NOT the United States. I was told this also includes issues with the camera as well. This is a no go for me. I cannot imagine Best Buy selling a product that has zero warranty service in the US. Returning this kit as well as my camera today!
