I have a Viofo A119 V3 dash cam and VIOFO HK3ACC hardwire kit. I also have a radar detector and a gentex mirror to hard-wire into my 2018 Focus RS.
I had the idea to put the VIOFO hardware kit in the space behind the overhead console. I primarily want to do this to make it easier to change out if I need to (so I don't have to fish/unfish it across the headliner, down the A pillar, etc.; I can just disconnect it behind the overhead console if I want to get rid of it or change it.
A couple of thoughts/questions..
I am not certain whether both 12V and switched power are already both available behind the overhead console, and I am concerned about running 3 additional devices off of what might be there (if it is there); so I am planning to run wires off fuse taps for 12V and switched/acc.
Any other comments?
Thanks!

A couple of thoughts/questions..
- Is there enough space to fit the HK3ACC hardwire kit easily in the space above the overhead console?
- Any thoughts on whether it will survive here? It seems it would hotter hear as it would be directly behind the roof. Maybe it needs to go down near the cabin fuse box
