Is there an extra power supply in the headliner?
I am looking to run power for my radar detector and would like to wire the power to the overhead console 12V supply.
Has anyone had the headliner down yet and/or could tell me if there is an extra power supply? I could wire in an extra switch for the power to the radar detector if the 12V supply is always on. |

There are two connectors under the overhead console, a white one(rear camera) and a black one(homelink mirror) you can run it off the black one like Tox did ...check here

Back up camera wiring is already up there. I just plugged into that for my camera.

Sorry I missed this thread before. It's simple to do as you can see in the instructions found in the following thread:
Locating Radar Detector power at Top of Window - Toyota Tundra Forum You don't need to drop the entire headliner, just the overhead console. And the power is switched so the radar detector will turn off on its own when the truck is turned off.

I went ahead and installed the radar detector the other day but I didn't run a separate aux power wire like the other site says to. Instead, I tapped the purple wire from the backup camera wire harness for power. This is a great option for me since this wire only gets power when the headlights are on...so I can turn the RD on and off with the headlight switch and if I get out of the truck, the RD shuts off when the headlights shut off automatically.
Just thought I'd share... |
