Reversible routing for dash cam cable?
Hi. I've got an LCI E60 (UK spec, right hand drive) and wanted to install two dash cams (front facing and rear facing).
The front facing cam will be placed in front of the rear view mirror and the rear facing camera will be placed near the top right or top left corner of the rear wind shield.
I want the cable routing to be non-permanent and in a way that is completely reversible. I really don't want to remove any panels or things that will cause problems.
Also, I don't want the cable to be dangling down in plain site but if the cable is routed in corners/crevices such that it is only visible if you know what you're looking for then I don't mind.
What's the best and most discrete way I can do this?
TIA

Uh my best answer is.. it's going to be tough. I routed cable through my trunk for a backup camera and I did have to move the seats to get it by.. then I could tuck it under the door trim.. that part is easy enough. For the windshield I would say it's going to be darned hard to route it by the A pillars, which also have airbags.. and there is no real way to tuck it down the trim on the side of the car either.. you can try your best with a pry tool to tuck it into any trim possible..
