How to...

How to hard wire/direct connect radar detector on C300 2011? Currently I m using the cigarette plug outlet. Also I m going to install a backup camera with mirror display since my C300 head unit have the Nav 4. Where should I connect the wire to the power supply for both?


Thanks in advance.
