    I'd like to wire up my after-market dash cam to plug into the same connector that Toyota uses for their dash cam. I think this is the 5-pin connector in the roof cavity/ dome light.
    I have a Viofo dash cam and their hard-wire kit allows for switching between parking mode and driving mode if correctly wired to both a constant and an ignition controlled power source.

    I can't imagine that the connector or a pig tail would be more than a couple of bucks, but I haven't been able to find the type of connector that I need.

    Does anyone know where to find these or a part number to search for?
    Thanks.

    This is for a 2024 Limited.

    Thanks for the tip. I might have to try that.

    What I would really like is just this connector or pigtail:

    The Viofo hardwire kit can switch to parking mode, but I am not sure that the Dongar one will do that.

    If anyone has a lead on just the connector, please let me know.

    These work too, and not expensive... And plug into the dash cam connector up inside the headliner under the overhead console.
