Dash Cam DIY Install Kit - Fuse Taps, Circuit Tester & Trim Tool

Everything for a DIY Hardwire in One Box. Fuse taps, circuit tester and trim tool, so nothing stops you halfway

It's Saturday morning, the camera is on the glass and you're ready to hardwire it for Parking Mode. Then the tap doesn't fit your fuse box, you can't tell which fuse is switched and the only thing to hand for the A-pillar trim is a screwdriver. That's a weekend and two trips to Supercheap. The Dash Cam Guys Essential Install Kit puts every one of those pieces in a single box, so the job takes an hour instead.

Trust this purchase: Put together by us here in Australia, shipping from Melbourne within 24 hours^*. You get a 12-month warranty, local technical support, and our 30-Day No-Worries returns.

Who This Isn't For: This kit assumes you're comfortable opening a fuse box and pulling a trim panel. If automotive wiring isn't your thing, ask us instead and we'll point you at an independent installer near you. It also doesn't include the camera-specific 3-wire hardwire cable, which is what actually carries power to your camera.

Highlights

What We Love

• Add-a-circuit fuse taps in four blade sizes, covering the overwhelming majority of Australian fuse boxes
• Add-a-fuse design keeps the factory circuit on its original fuse and the whole install reversible
• Includes the 6V, 12V & 24V compatible circuit tester and nylon trim tool that most people only realize they need mid-job
• Fuse pullers and spare 3A fuses for every blade size in the kit, so you're not improvising with pliers
• One box instead of chasing the tester, the taps and the trim tool separately

What Could Be Better

• No Micro3 fuse tap, so some late-model vehicles need an extra adapter
• The 3-wire hardwire cable is camera-specific and sold separately - tell us your model and we'll match it

Why the Trim Tool Is the Piece People Forget

A metal screwdriver marks the plastics, dents the panel edge and can push a clip clean through the trim. The nylon tool spreads the load and pops the clips properly. That's the difference between an install that looks factory and one that obviously isn't, and it's the part everyone leaves out of the shopping list until the panel is already scratched.

Why Clean Hardwiring Matters

A proper hardwire avoids messy splices, stops rattles behind the trim, and keeps factory circuits protected by their original fuses. It also makes future troubleshooting simple, because everything is reversible and nothing is buried inside a cut loom. Come trade-in time, the car goes back to standard in minutes.

Top Benefits

• One box, no second trip: Taps, tester, trim tool, pullers, spare fuses, cable ties and placement decals all together.
• OEM-safe install: Add-a-fuse taps preserve the original circuit while adding a new fused branch.
• Broad fuse coverage: ATO, Mini, Micro2 and Low-Profile Mini suit most Australian fuse boxes. No Micro3.
• Faster power testing: The 6-24V tester finds switched and constant feeds in minutes instead of pulling fuses one by one.
• Scratch-free panels: The trim tool lifts A-pillar and headliner trim without marking it.
• Works beyond dash cams: Same kit powers a dedicated battery pack, a radar detector or any small 12V accessory. 12-month warranty either way.
