The wiring goes from the front cam to the battery pack in the trunk which then connects to the cigarette lighter using the supplied VIOFO cable.
I did not use the hardwire kit; this way it was easy to avoid messing with an EV fusebox.
The battery pack was back-ordered from Blackboxmycar so I installed the original VIOFO usb-c cable which was too short but long enough to plug into the rear usb-c plug at the back of the center console.
FYI, this is not a good place given that Lucid installed the plug in the actual cover instead of inside the compartment and sticks out at a 90 degree angle.
The battery pack had to be ordered with the appropriate hardwire splice that works with VIOFO and that cable seemed rather long although I think it would have been too short to reach the cam as well.
So I just got a coupler from Amazon to connect the 2 cables underneath the passenger seat.
Don’t have the Amazon link handy but it was a pricier coupler (female/female) that was certain to provide power no matter how it’s plugged in.
Apparently that can be an issue with some cheap Chinese junk couplers.
That said, if you have a glass roof, the thickness of the VIOFO cable is still borderline. You will have to remove the center light strip from roof to route the cable. If you have the aluminum roof, it is super easy to route like in any other car via the A-pillar.
I wish I would have taken some picks during disassembly but it’s easy and quick. The only concern was not to break any clips.
The rear camera required the removal of the C-pillar cover on the passenger side; also easy to do but I realized afterwards that Lucid actually forgot to install one clipNow it’s not perfect tight until I can stop by the service location to get one.
Good luck!
Have been following your posts on the dashcam install and will be picking up my Touring soon.
Is my understanding correct that you're routing both power and rear camera cable up the middle of the glass roof and then the power cable goes down the b-pillar and into the trunk from the floor?
Meanwhile the rear camera cable is routed from the top to the right-side passenger through c-pillar to the rear?
Looking to also grab the A229 but without the battery.
