Tesla Model Y Dashcam Setup Guide 2026
Setting up Dashcam on a 2026 Model Y takes a minute once you know where the data port is.
Setting up Dashcam on a 2026 Model Y takes a minute once you know where the data port is. Open the glovebox and plug your drive into the USB-A port; that is the dedicated TeslaCam slot. Many new deliveries include a Tesla USB drive already in the glovebox, but if yours is missing, any fast exFAT drive will work. Model Y uses fender cameras along with front and rear views, so your clips cover the blind spots that matter in traffic.
