  • All dashcams are shipped fully activated and are mounted directly to the windshield.
  • The best location for the dashcam is below the rear view mirror in a centered position.
  • It is important to spend time considering exactly where to mount the dascham.
  • Additionally, be sure to note down either the IMEI or Serial Number of your dashcam as you'll need this in the Configuring and Assigning step.

To complete the installation of your dashcam you will need the following items (all of which come standard in any SmarWitnes KP2 Dashcam order):

  • A. SmartWitness KP2 Dashcam
  • B. 3M Adhesive Tape
  • C. Alchohol Pads
  • D. Adhesive Cable Clips
  • E. Torque Wrench
  • F. Dashcam Power Cable (either OBDII connector, JBUS connector or barewire adapter for hardwiring)

In addition to the above, you may also need some of the following additional/optional cables depending on your vehicle and how you're choosing to install the dashcam:

  • OBD Bracket/Bypass Y Cable
  • OBD Basic Y Cable

Step 1 - Use the alcohol wipes to clean the area you will mount the dashcam. Allow time to dry. To determine compliant device placement, check local regulations. 

Step 2 - If not already attached to the dashcam, remove one side of the 3M adhesive tape and attach to the mounting bracket of the dashcam. Press evenly to ensure the mounting bracket’s adhesive is flush against the glass. Hold to window for 30 seconds

Step 3 - Remove adhesive and apply cable clips to windshield. Slide the power cable into clips.

Step 6 - Plug the end of the OBDII adapter cable into your vehicle’s OBDII port.
