Just picked up a 2-CH dash cam
#34
no issues with it so far. but most of the failures i've read about is in the summer using parking mode.
an alternative is the thinkware f750. front and rear cam goes for 360
the f750 has way more tech. speed warning, red light cameras warning, lane departure warning... man, if my cam fails, i would get this.

Which fuse do you connect to? See image below. As for the grounding wires, you just need to find a small bolt behind the kick panel, loosen it and connect the ground wires to that bolt.
Pic on the right shows the right way to do it with a fuse tap kit. Found here: http://amzn.to/28Z6HLn

#6 - Connect to Dash Cam!
#3 - Red Wire connects to the socket fuse (acc)
#4 - Yellow Wire connects to the Meter fuse (bat)
#5 - Ground wires. Find a tiny bolt behind the kick panel (remove the kick panel to make your life easier) loosen the bolt, use a plier to make the metal loop bigger. Slide the loop behind the bolt you loosened, tighten bolt and ur done with that part.
Have fun tucking in the wires. If you have OCD, Zip ties are your friend.

Just to add some more info to this, I have a 2014 Q60 6-MT and my fuse box compared to the one picture above was different (see below). I ended up using the "ELEC PARTS (BAT)" for my batt+ and the "SOCKET" as the acc. Also its worth noting that mine wasn't working initially because I had the controller set at 12V but upon dialing it down to 11.8V, the controller worked! Again as stated above, zip ties are your friends. I kind of wished I got the 2-channel, perhaps on my new 2017 Coupe next year
