The Dongar Classic is the original plug & play dash cam power adapter. It taps into the power already flowing to your auto-dimming rearview mirror, giving your dash cam a clean, hidden power source — no dangling cables from the cigarette lighter, no hardwire kit, no fuse tap.
How It Works
Your car's auto-dimming rearview mirror already has a powered wire harness behind it. The Dongar Classic plugs into that harness with a vehicle-specific connector and provides 18W USB-C output for your dash cam. The entire install takes about 5 minutes and requires zero tools. Your mirror's auto-dimming function continues working normally.

So easy, 2 screws holding the map light cover on (2024 Subaru Outback Touring XT), put the Dongar in line with the old connector, plug in the USB and hide the wires. It would have been a five minute job but I couldn’t find the correct connector, there’s a bunch in that area! Saved a ton of time over a standard hard wire kit.
it keeps drawing power when the car is off and I wake up to notifications on my BMW screen each morning.
Worked as advertised immediately, out of the box.
Very pleased.
Easy DIY to connect the dash cam in my 2026 Toyota Camry LE.
Makes for a tidy dash cam install on a 2026 Prius.
