2019 Tesla Model 3 Dashcam Compatibility & Best Dashcam
Yes — the 2019 Tesla Model 3 can be fitted with an aftermarket dashcam. Dashcams work on virtually every vehicle; the main factors are the power source and where you mount it.
Can You Install a Dashcam in a 2019 Model 3?
Yes. The 2019 Tesla Model 3 works with standard aftermarket dashcams. The key fitment questions are the power source (USB-C port (front console) / 12V socket) and whether the windshield has an ADAS camera housing to work around.
Dashcam Fitment Details
| Power Source | USB-C port (front console) / 12V socket |
|---|---|
| Windshield Type | ADAS camera-equipped (Tesla Vision) |
| ADAS Warning | Mount the dashcam clear of the ADAS camera housing so you don't block lane-keep, emergency braking or rain-sensing sensors. |
| Wiring Tip | Route the cable along the A-pillar, tuck it under the headliner, and hardwire to a switched fuse for clean, hidden wiring with parking-mode support. |
Installation Tip
Installation tip for the 2019 Model 3: position the dashcam just behind the rear-view mirror on the passenger side, run the cable under the trim, and use a hardwire kit to the fuse box so it powers on with the ignition (and enables parking mode if you add a fuse tap).
