2025 Seal - Dashcam Cables

cyber_auth | 2025-03-30 13:32 | 9 views

Hi all, I have a 2025 Seal Premium coming in roughly mid April and am looking to install a dash cam. I noticed a few sites (eevastore.com.au & topevgear.com.au) have mentioned that the 2025 seals no longer come with the cables pre-run. I have no idea where they've sourced this info from. Can anyone with a 2025 seal confirm if they have the pre-run cables? Thanks!

Also waiting on my seal, but I have saw a comment from another owner on Facebook that they do not have the pre-run cable from factory

Went to install dashcam into my 2025 Seal just yesterday and there was no cable. There's a new USB port up there though which I guess is nice. Purchased cable last night.

Can you check if the slot for the memory card is also now removed? Not sure how the OEM dashcam would record even if you run the cable

The slot is still there.

Thanks for the info! Are you planning to route the cable yourself? It seems like a lot of work with a fair bit of trim coming off - I'm not sure if I want to do that myself. The new USB port sounds super helpful for 3rd party dashcams though, is there an easy way to route the cable out? Perhaps the original dashcam hole?

I have an OG seal with cable. I did buy a camera but it was faulty or something was. Good luck. I actually have a 3 ch viofo a229 pro and magicguard on my Seal which is essentially 7 cameras.

you aren't missing much. the quality is pretty meh, and its pretty low bitrate so it turns into potato when there is trees. The main benefit of it is that it records some telemetry like pedal inputs and speed. I have been meaning to get a nice 4k cam and put my old 1440p cam in the rear, but I haven't gotten around to it.

Yeah I wanted it to see if I can view the car from a higher angle when in parking mode. My viofo is 4k/2k/1080p, but when all 3 cameras are used it's only 2k max i think. With Magickguard it has pedal input.

Yeah I've done a few hardwired dashcam installs and the Seal doesn't look complicated. Mostly just need to pop the trim in the center console, route behind the glovebox, pop the trim below the A pillar, up the A pillar, across the headliner and you're done. The new USB port is USB A, there's just a little cover you can remove to access it, no trim removal required.

What cable did you get to connect the OEM dashcam to the top USB connector if I may ask? and where did you buy it from?

Hi wondering if you can update on how you sorted this?
