I have power going to the Back up monitor. How can I tap onto that to power a Dash Cam?
First, both devices must use the same input power.
If both use raw 12 V, then it should be fairly easy.
If either requires it's own power supply, then it gets a bit more complicated.
Knowing the make and model of each device would make this discussion a LOT easier.
