2021 Limited - need dual power from mirror/overhead console for dash cam and V1

[Naylor99]

Pickling up a “new to me” 2021 Limited next week.
I'd like to install a dashcam (Garmin) and a Valentine One radar detector.
I know there are adapters that provide a USB connection by tapping mirror pwr, but they all seem limited to one connection.
Whats the cleanest way to provide power to both from the mirror or overhead console?
(I know I won't get parking mode for the camera this way)
Any help is appreciated!

I also have a (Radenso DS1) radar detector and Viofo dual-camera system...
For me, the cleanest way to obtain power was to go after the center-console cigarette lighter ... it's powered on ACC and worked for me. Easier than digging into the fusebox (which I've done, for heated steering wheel).
I chose to run the dashcam wires down the passenger A-Pillar (just undo the two grab-handle-screws and the A-pillar pops right off).
I chose to run the radar-detector MUTE and power cable down the driver's side A-pillar (pop the ABS cover, undo the 10mm bolt and off it comes). For tidy wiring, I also chose to remove the lower dash knee-panel and give myself lots of room and visibility.

I did not try using a mirror-tap. Nor did Toyota when they installed the original front-only dashcam. So, I can't actually help you on that one...

I've seen some with more than one USB output:

Here's what I ended up doing;

For the V1, I used a mirror tap.
My new dashcam is a Garmin X210, and they have a constant power cable that draws power from the OBD2 port.
It does provide 2 USB ports, so I now have a spare. Nice thing is that it has some power monitoring options. I'm happy with the outcome.
