AJF Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 Hi I'm new to this forum and I have a question regarding my wife's 2011 MKX. Figured I post an MKX question here since the MKX and the Edge are fairly similar. I got her a Rexing dash cam with rear camera, but I don't see an access point to run the wire from inside to the hatch door. I have a F150 truck and I have an access point on my driver's side floor to the left of my brake pedal that allows me to run wires outside and to the rear. I was seeing if the MKX has something similar or how do I run the wire from the dash camera to the hatch door. I have the dash cam mounted on the windshield to the right under the visor and then I have the power wire hard wired into the fuse panel. Now I need to run the camera wire. Someone have an idea or two. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 Nothing I've every seen in my MKX. Probably have to run the wire above the headliner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 I ran my wire in edge of headliner. Just tuck it in, plenty of room. Then ran across hatch to wire loom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWRBB Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 I couldn't run the camera wiring through the stock wire loom/rubber boot, so I drilled a new hole and run it through there. I put a rubber grommet on it to prevent chafing of the wires. The hole is up top, just above the weatherstripping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJF Posted August 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Thanks for the replies. I did end up running along the headliner, then dropped it down inside the rear panel, under the spare, through an access plug, under body and then between the tail pipes, through an access point behind the license plate, then attached the camera above the license plate. Pretty simple after removing the spare and seeing what I have to work with. Again thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
