Hi all.
I’m taking the Blackvue cameras off my 2018 Explorer and installing them on my 2024 F-150XLT. Believe me these cameras have saved me loads when it comes to traffic tickets and accidents as I can show the cops the videos! I have a front cam on the front windshield and that’s the easy part. I am mounting the rear cam on my Leer Cap on my bed and need to find the best way to run the video/power cable from the forward camera in the cab back to the rear camera on the back window of the Leer cap, so thinking I would probably need the cable to run into the bed walls to the back but how do I get from the cab to the bed walls? Anyone know the best route? Trying to avoid running anything on the outside of the truck as the video cord isn’t all weather.
Thanks much!!!

There vents behind rear seat. here's a video on adding Starkey bed lights. At about 4 minutes 30 seconds you can see where they suggest running wires.

I can't imagine the cable is long enough. I also have a Blackvue Two Channel.

They make 20’ and 33’ cables.
