USB plug and play adapter for digital mirror?

[wsutard1]

Has anyone found a usb adapter that pulls power from the digital rear view mirror? I see that Dongar makes one that works on auto dimming non digital mirrors.

I want to connect my dash cam up there. Don’t want to splice into existing wiring.

Nothing wrong is splicing into factory wiring is done right, i did it when the truck was 2 month old, i used this, also used them on other vehicles, they work great.

I believe that trucks with the digital mirror have a 16 pin adapter. Which is what I’m looking for.

These adapters let you grab power going to the mirror without cutting the factory wires. Then you can use that power to run anything you want to put up by the mirror. Usually a dash cam or radar detector.

The digital rear view mirror uses the exact same connector, and the exact same 3 wires as all the other mirrors used in Ram trucks.

Thanks. I’ll give it a go then.
