I have a 2020 Kia Niro EV (general interior similar to gas & PHEV versions).
I'm trying to figure out where is the best location to mount the front & rear cameras.
Should the front cam be mounted to the rain sensor cover?
As for the rear cam,
The problem with that is the heated glass window is on a hatch that swings up.
Do I need to mount the rear cam on the headliner? I can't mount the unit on the glass as it's all covered by heating elements where the wiper swipes.
I also purchase the HK3 hardwire kit, but I'm wondering if I really need it.
Does the traction battery recharge the 12v battery so I don't have to worry about draining the 12v.?
What have others done?
Thanks in advance.
