Hard wire or mirror tap radar detector

Hi ! I’m new here from Alberta Canada. I just picked up a 2023 tundra limited hybrid yesterday. I’m curious on how to connect my radar detector without using the 12v plug in. Going for the clean look. What fuse to tap in? Unfortunately the back of my rear view mirror doesn’t have an exposed connector ( my other truck had that and it was easy to mirror tap it) any pictures of your set up would be appreciated.

 

What type of power input is the radar?

 

Not 100% sure but someone told me 10 amps max

 

I mean what type of connector

 

There’s a Connector that’s up above the glasses compartment. I don’t remember the brains but there is a harness that you can get 12V to USB

 

Maybe this will help

That my set up. I already have the mirror tap kit from previous super duty truck. I noticed a plug under the cap where mirror stem goes in it’s just a matter of finding where to tap in. Hopefully someone here did it already? Picture would be appreciated

 

I bought this for my dash cam. Works great for me. Not site if it’ll help in your application with radars.

I do not have auto dimming mirror. It’s a base SR5 with no lights or ports on it.

See my post that was quoted above. It includes pictures. I did this with my V1G2.
