I'm about to install my dash cam that needs to be wired in, not 12V plug in. I couldn't see the interior fuse box in any of the usual places. Anyone get an answer?
 
There is no under dash fuse box on my 2020 3500.
I hard wired my Dashcam into the mirror wiring. If yours is 5dcv powered you need a reducer in line.
 
No, mine is 12v. 3 wires: ground, +12 and +12 accessories.
I've got to find something under dash, there's just too little room to work and try to stuff all that wire and power module under the headliner if I were to wire it into the mirror harness like you did.

I understand. Especially if you want to utilize the accessories. Do you have auxiliary switches? If so you have access to switch #6 under the dash. I haven't looked for any 12v leads under the dash. In my other Ram I used the cigar lighter power. In these new Ram with the cigar lighter on top of the dash (bad change IMO) I'm not sure that would be a good choice access wise.

FYI - mine is also 12v and I used this to hardwire, nothing to stuff under the headliner.

If you have the Aux switches, there are a few threads here about how to easily get an Aux switch, IGN+ and BAT+ into the cab.

Look for the dash camera thread.
 
No aux switches, wish I ordered with them but it slipped my mind at the time. Will try to look for a dash cam thread. Thx

What I did was get an ac to dc converter and plugged it into the rear power socket. It sits under the rear seats and charges a cellink battery pack which then feeds power to my dash cam.
