Pre-wired dashcam connector location?

Based on the instruction you will need 2 fuses, one in the footwell and one in the "fuse holder A (front end) (see page 16)". We still haven't located that fuse box, so if you do find it, please share it here! Or share any photos you can take during installation.

The instructions seem to imply that the 5amp fuse is for the Porsche rear camera, so that fusebox is in the trunk area. If you have a dashcam that uses the coax for power to the rear camera, you don't need that rear fuse.

I may be wrong on this point though.

My guess is that the front end fuse box is in the frunk area.

I posted photos from the front pax footwell and side panel and the rear trunk panels.

I'll forever be in search of the front end fuse panel

Damn, I assumed the pre-wiring meant no need to fuse tap

Prewired means you do not need to fuse tap BUT you do need to add 2 fuses based on the instructions from porsche. The fuses are left empty to disconnect the prewiring from the rest of the car.

Oooh got it, thanks for that clarification. Big difference!

All you need to know about the pre-wired location, and the specifics to install the Porsche dashcam.
Also about the fuses (p16)

Firstly, this is amazing thank you. But also why in the world would the pre-wire location for the rear camera be all the way down the side of the luggage compartment and not run up to the top of the trunk lid where the camera actually goes. In the 24 cayenne it is run to the trunk lid based on the photos from that other thread link, very odd they did this in the macan ev.
