Dashcam fitting 19 plate V60

[Rabbitgirl]

Just traded in our 13 plate V60 for a nice shiny 19 plate. Removed the dashcam from the old one but having trouble fitting it to the new one. Can’t find the fuse box at all despite googling and checking the manual...it just doesn’t seem to be where it’s supposed to be...

Having a dashcam is a requirement of our insurance unless we want to pay higher premium plus I like my dashcam as it proved our side when an Audi driver drove into our wing and sped off last year.

Does anyone have any suggestions before we ask Volvo if they will fit it for us....

Plug it I to the 12v socket for time being.....sure the fuse box isn’t just well tucked away behind a trim panel?

Should be under glove box ?

I thought the fusebox was behind the glovebox in the V60, I can't check as I've still not had mine delivered.

My dealer has agreed to fit cameras to my V60 for £80 per camera (ie £160 for front and back cams) although that's on a newly built car they're supplying so if you're interested there's a good chance a dealer might do it.

For me it's worth it as I'm sensitive to rattles in the car (I have funny hearing issues) and my current car (BMW) had a dealer fit camera that caused issues with a rattle behind the dash requiring £100s to fix which the dealer initially tried to say wasn't their responsibility until I pointed out it was them who fitted it.

However it's not cheap - I wouldn't think a decent autospark wouldn't cost that much.
