A Simple, Plug-and-Play Connection with Full Parking Mode Support

The IROAD OBD-II Power Cable (IM-300) is designed to provide a simple, plug-and-play solution for seamlessly powering dash cams whether the vehicle is on or off. It automatically switches between Standard recording mode (when the vehicle is on) and Parking Mode (when the vehicle is off). This can be changed through the S and P switches on the cable, with S only allowing Standard power draw when the vehicle is on, and P allowing both Standard and Parking Mode functionality. Its user-friendly design eliminates the need for complex installations, allowing even those without technical expertise to easily connect their dash cams.

Improved Version, Wider Compatibility

The IM-300 is compatible with all vehicle types, including fuel, hybrid, and electric vehicles. It features an OBD connector switch that allows users to toggle between general and EV modes.
With the ability to support both 12V and 24V batteries, the IM-300 is even more versatile, allowing compatibility with larger vehicles such as commercial trucks and RVs.

With added Stop & Go support, the IM-300 ensures compatibility with Start-Stop engines, which other OBD cables can have issues with.

Works for newer models

Purchased this to replace my old obd adapter from thinkware which did not work with my 2026 Volkswagen Tiguan. IROAD came in clutch and works great.

Thanks for the review, William! We’re glad to hear the IROAD OBD-II cable worked great with your 2026 Volkswagen Tiguan and was the right replacement for your setup.

Worked like it said it was going to

Worked like it said it was going to. Only a two pin for power only. That’s good.

Thanks for the review, Brandon! We’re glad to hear the IM-300 worked exactly as expected and that the simple power-only setup was a good fit for your needs.

Would not recommend buying anything from this company.

Their return policy states....Our Returns & Exchange Policy
We provide returns & exchange support to customers in Canada and the U.S. who purchased directly from us at BlackboxMyCar. We stand behind our products. If you're unhappy with your purchase, contact us within 30 days to initiate a return. So I ordered the IROAD OBD-II IM-300 Power Cable, thinking I might use it to make my dash cam install easier. I wasn't sure I would need it but wanted to make sure I had everything on hand that I might possible need on the day of my install.I thought as long as I don't use it, then I can simply return it. Apparently not. Well turns out I can't use it at all due to the fact that my dash cam is not compatible with OBD ports. So when I contacted the company they told me there are no returns on cables. WHAT? THAT IS NOT WHAT THEIR POLICY STATES AS i COPIED AND PASTED IT ABOVE! So apparently even though this item hasn't even been opened, I cannot return it and I am just out $60.00. This is complete nonsense! They are a very misleading company and do NOT care at all about making their customers happy. Save your money and don't waste your time with this company!!!

Works as advertised

I ordered this and installed it in my 2023 Ram 2500 to power an IROAD dash-cam. It was extremely easy and has not caused any problems so far. It's refreshing when something performs precisely as it should.

Works perfect!

Used for installation of a Thinkware Q200 in my daughters 1st care. Made it super easy and had plenty of length of cord. Would recommend for a quick and simple install.

Works great

The oem OBD2 cable bundled with the Thinkware U3000 dashcam did not work (did not provide enough power, kept resetting). I purchased this cable and BAM, I’m up and running!

It's very simple and wired well--only two pins (power and ground) are wired so it shouldn't pose a problem to a car's onboard computer.

IROAD OBD-II Power Cable worked great for a few minutes

I connected the IROAD OBD-II Power Cable to my 2025 Mazda CX-5(Fuel Engine) and my Thinkware Q200 dashcam worked great for a few minutes. After a bit of research, I was able to conclude that the IROAD OBD-II is not the issue but rather the vehicle's OBD II port turns off after 5 minutes. I gave it 5 stars because the cable itself does work as intended.

Very short

Just made it to Dcam w 1” to spare in a Ram 2500.
Center windshield to front left of engine bay. Careful routing made it reach after first time
It was short.
Do yourself a favor and order the longer one.
This one is for a small car, length wise

Worked, unlike Thinkware's

Unlike Thinkware's OBD cable, this one worked out of the box on my wife's 21 Ford Transit Connect, and had additional features. Wish I had purchased this one first - would have saved me 1.5 weeks of dealing with Thinkware's pointless support staff.

IROAD cable

Customer service was great. Got my questions answered and placed the order . Shipped quickly and got it installed in a matter of minutes. Heard it was better than thinkware obd11 one as I heard it may cause check engine light to come on. All good do far

Better than Thinkware brand cable

Tried two Thinkware OBD II cables on my 2020 Ford Mustang GT, and both did not work properly. The IRoad OBD II cable worked like a charm the moment it was plugged in. It’s no wonder why blackboxmycar packages their Thinkware cameras with this cable. Attention to detail matters!

Why Didn’t I Get This Earlier

Have installed a few Thinkware Dash Cams now for friends and this is by far the quickest and easiest way to connect all your power needs. Was as simple as “Plug n Walk Away”. Might do this all the time now.

No worries about wiring connections or insulation, or struggling with heat shrink, no searching for the right fuse circuits to tap into. No having to search for the bolt that the “ground” wire works well with. Just pure simple elegance and ease.

Dash Cam Iroad OBDII

Although I haven't had the opportunity for the install yet, (weather) I am anxious to get it done. It will save a lot of time and effort of not having to hard wire. As well, the customer service was second to none and very informative. They answered all my questions and made it an easy process. Thanks guys.

Suggest the plug to connect the dash cam can also have choice of Type C plug.

Works perfect in a 2022 Nissan Frontier

Have the Thinkware unit in my old truck that I removed to put into my 2022 Nissan Frontier. Much easier than my old hard wire kit. Just plug it in and hide the wire and you are done. Love it so much easier

Iroad obd cable

Purchased this cable 3 weeks ago and it works great. Easy to install and gives me the same features as if I would have hard wired. Using it for my 2 channel u1000.

IROAD OBD-II Power Cable

Bought this to go with my ThinkWare Pro200 dashcam as I did not want to have to risk draining my car battery by forgetting to unplug the power supply from my power outlet which does not shut off with the ignition. I also like that the cable allows me to easily use parking surveillance mode without having to get a professional to hardwire the included hardware kit into my car. In addition there is a handy on/off switch on the cable that allows you to turn off parking mode if you would prefer not to have it running when ignition is off.
