Hi, If it's still of use this image shows the Primary Junction Fuse Box Ground Point.

Good Morning Paul, BTW I'm now off my "ATF Soap Box" and in the cold light of day now understand your original post with a little more clarity. (I blame age and too many pain killers) Regarding the mirror dash cam and DC-DC converter - I'll gather some photos of what I did and post a little later. Thank you for your interest. Rgds Brian

Glad you got it sorted Best Brian

Hi, Appreciate that this response is rather late and you probably have resolved your dash cam issue. I am new to forum. However this may be useful to others. I had a similar dilemma when wanting to add a dash cam to my S Type. I don't like trailing wires and I didn't want to keep removing the camera every time I park my car in case it gets stolen. The solution I settled with was a mirror cam. It has a 4.3" screen built into the mirror and the kit includes a rear camera. (see images below). The front facing camera quality is very good and the rear camera quality is more than adequate. The camera uses a Micro SD card for storage. The things I really like about this cam is that the front camera is on the R/H side of the mirror cam (many are on the left and face away from the road in a R/H drive car) and the power, rear cam and GPS module (purchase separately) plug in to the top of the unit. This allows you to feed the cable/s along and around the headlining edge and drop down by the mirror post. I also fitted a dual DC to DC USB converter unit which I connected into the driver's foot well main fuse box. This does away with the need for dangling USB power leads plugged into the cigar lighter/AUX socket. The camera stays fitted at all times as it is discreet and functions well as a mirror. The only downside is that when the camera is active it "blocks" the signal from the key fob when locking or unlocking the car. I overcame this by not setting the camera to auto activate. If anyone is interested in more detail I can provide some more images etc. All items available on Ebay Cam circa £40 Converter circa £5 SD Card circa £11

Excellent - looking forward to it.

Hi, I'm a great believer in subtle "add-ons" and really useful mods. This is a really well considered and well executed conversion. I like also the fact that it can be converted back to OEM JLR status. (Good call to order extra lamps) This has just gone on my "to do" list - and pretty close to the top I have to say.
