Subaru Dash Cam Buying and Installation Guide

For an Outback, Crosstrek or another EyeSight-equipped Subaru, placement and cable routing matter as much as camera features. Use the handbook for your exact model year.

A Subaru dash cam should capture a useful road view without intruding into the area required by EyeSight or the driver's vision. That makes a compact body, careful mounting and model-specific installation advice especially important. Do not copy an EyeSight dashcam location from a different Subaru generation: camera housings and exclusion areas can change.

Common questions

Questions before you buy

Where can a dash cam go in a Subaru with EyeSight?

Use only a position permitted by the handbook for that exact vehicle and model year. The unit must not obstruct the driver's view or sit in an EyeSight camera exclusion zone.

What type of dash cam suits a Subaru Outback?

A compact front-and-rear system suits drivers who want coverage through both windscreens. Check rear-cable length and the route through the moving tailgate before choosing.

Can a dash cam interfere with Subaru EyeSight?

A poorly placed camera, mount or cable may obstruct the EyeSight cameras or their view. Follow Subaru's current handbook guidance rather than guessing.

Is hardwiring a dash cam safe in a Subaru Crosstrek?

It can be when the kit and connection points are suitable for the vehicle. Because fuse layouts and electrical requirements vary, use the handbook or a qualified installer.
