Thanks NacsMXer!

I been here since 2012, and hard wired (mirror tapped) a Lexus ISF, a bunch of RX 350's, and two GX 460's. This thread helped a ton on a 2023 NX. The newer cars are getting much more complicated to wire tap near the mirror assemblies, just way too much tech getting in the way...

I tapped the same wires you did, except the ground wire was yellow

Thanks again!

You're welcome darkoozyl! Doesn't help much when information on a common accessory is spotty for a newer vehicle. So i'm glad you found this helpful.

I agree with too many wires to probe up there. It took me a minute to find 12v key-on only power.

Have a safe and Happy New Year!

Thanks NacsMXer for posting this.
Count +1 for another dashcam installed using your investigative work.
I just got delivery of my 450h+ 2 days ago.. can't live without a dashcam..

Next thing on the list is better sound (non ML stereo).

I do not think it is a 12 pin connector behind a mirror, because I was thinking to buy one of those splitters from Dongar for my dash camera, but I bought 16 pin splitter from them that was for a Ford vehicles, because I needed 16 pin one for my NX, and they did not have any others. Anyway, that 16 pin splitter that was meant for Ford did not work at all as it was a totally different size and out of those 16 pins there were only like 10 that had the wires lol
