Works Very Well
I used this to wire a Garmin 35 dash cam. I mounted the cam at the top of the windshield just to the left of the mirror. The wire ran under the front edge of the headliner and under the trim beside the airbag on the left A pillar ending up at the fuse box at the left side of the dash. The box in the middle of the wire has a sticker advising that it needs to be able to breathe, and it's in free air under the dash. The ferrite bead near the mini USB plug was not an issue. I used an add-a-circuit fuse to make a neat installation. The This was done on a 2016 Silverado.This cable is good quality and I would purchase again.

Works Great!
I recently purchased a Cobra dash cam. It works great, but the power adapter caused static on my FM radio. This one doesn't.Installation was very neat. I was able to route the cable under the A-pillar cover and above the headliner with ease. Only the last 6 inches of the cable hangs down from the roof and is barely visible.

Great In almost Every Way - But----
Its a crying shame that whoever engineered this item made the cable length between the USB Plug in and the box 18" to short.This is a great and well made product that works perfectly with Garmin 10 dash cams and other Garmin devices (going directly to record on start up of the dash cams without a forced decision to avoid mass storage). Anyone who has used a Garmin with other third party direct wiring connectors knows that you inevitably forget to push the button and drive for a while without recording. Murphy's law makes it a sure thing that if you have an accident it will be when you forgot to start the recorder. On top of that this vendor is great, they process orders immediately and the item arrives well before the Amazon estimate. In addition they notify you directly when they ship and they provide an accurate delivery date (very quick). This product screams for a 5+ rating . But -----The cable between the box and the USB plug in is to short to route across the top of the window, down the pillar to the point it can slip behind the dash to the fuse box. The box ends up hanging beside the dash being crunched between the door and the side of the dash. This is on a 2016 Nissan Pathfinder. It is a big vehicle but similar to most full size pickups and smaller than some large SUV's. The shortage is about 8 inches on the Nissan.Due to other reviews I knew this before ordering and I spliced in 18 inches of wire in the area needed. With that done the installation was quick and the wire and box are totally hidden from view and the item still works perfectly. The decision to make that wire to short was a glaring false economy because many buyers would not take a chance on splicing the wire. That eliminates a large market segment of SUV's, Pickups, and older large carsfor a few cents worth of extra wire. Can't believe a product this good could incorporate such a poor design decision.If you have a small vehicle, can splice in some wire, or don't mind the box hanging outside the hidden channels, this is still the best option for Garmin Dash Cams and as stated everything else is top notch

Good deal
Working great. Works fine with my Garmin dash cam 35. I'd read reports that it would not turn on to recording mode with non Garmin power accessories. Not so with this one, it powers up and beings recording as soon as I start the car.

Inadequate shielding
I purchased this power cable with the Garmin 20 Dash Camera. I wanted to have the camera come on when I started the car and go off when I shut it off. I did not want to use the Garmin supplied car charger cable.Instillation was pretty easy and it seemed to work fine.I was using this cable in a 2013 Ford Expedition.I started getting a tire pressure sensor fault warning. I checked the tire pressure and all was good. We took the car to the dealer and they replaced the left rear tire sensor.As we drove away from the dealer the fault again came up. We returned to the dealer a total of 5 times, replaced the left rear sensor 4 times and the control unit once. About $1000 worth of work at the dealer.After the 5th time heading home and the fault warning came on my wife decided there must be something on line, we could not be the only ones having a problem. A fairly easy search revealed that some after marked electrical items in the car can block the signal from the tire sensor and the control unit. We disconnected this cable and there was no actual problem with the tire pressure sensor system.This cable is not adequately shielded to prevent interference with the signal in the 2013 Ford Expedition. I can not say how it will work in your vehicle but according to the search other vehicles are also affected.
