Q1: Is there a set of 'recommended' videos how to DIY install a DashCam?

I've seen several very helpful YT videos, however I forgot (old age) to bookmark them. Now I can't find them (old age), or more exactly I can't find the one I really need, to help my neighbor install a dash cam.

Q2: I saw one YT video in particular where they used a very long tie-wrap to fish a cable from the rear of a big SUV up to the front. I can't (re) locate that video. And I cannot find where to locate one of these long tie wraps (no luck on Amazon). I only need one. The tie wrap was flexible as you'd imagine, and it was also fairly thick (wide), maybe as wide as a US Dime (US 10¢).

With the long snake in the SUV, I'm guessing you might mean @SafeDriveSolutions running cables in my EV9?

He also shared some additional tips and tricks:

Welcome to the forum coal miner.

I know the feeling about bookmarking, where many other would use subscribe like say on Youtube, but i use bookmarks too for a few channels.
You can always just search again, in general it is much the same no matter of brand of camera or model of car

Thanks, but not exactly what I'm looking for.

@SafeDriveSolutions , I see you are using a fiberglass electrician's wire in one of the vids. I tried that and it's too horizontally rigid for my application. It runs into a bump out (or bump in) and won't work it's way around, and I'm afraid I will damage the headliner if applying any more force. The application is a huge, land-yacht sized SUV with a moon roof. I'm looking for an 8 foot long tie wrap.

Here's a video where someone is using one, see 16:50, unfortunately this is not the exact vid I remember.

The guy calls the tie wrap "rubber," but I see a flexible nylon tie wrap, longer and wider than normal. My main probem is I cannot locate any tie wraps longer than 60 inches. Have tried uline, tiewraps.com.
