2017 C63S AMG coupe Driver's side fuse box confusion - please help!!
I went to hard wire my radar detector today, and a few of the fuses seem to be missing I was planning to use, 216 "Glove box light" and 217 "Electronic Toll Collection" Spots for these are on the current fuse map diagram, there are 1/2 blanks in those spots now (appears only one side of a fuse would go in), and not sure they have any wiring connected to them. 219 and 218 above there are labeled for the airbag systems, so I'm guessing I shouldn't tap into either of those. Any advise or recommendations? Why would the glove box light slot 216 be empty? There is a globe box light but no fuse for it?
I need to find an ACC-powered fuse in that side panel to tap for my radar detector install. I suppose worst case, I could tap a fuse in the passenger footwell if I know which fuses were switched with ACC-power. Pics are attached for reference. Thanks, all!

Have you tried those two spots to see if they get power to ground?. It looks like they were made for a blade type, push in connector. You can get those with fuses in line, as well. If those positions provide power to ground, you're good to go!!!!

I ended up tapping into the 7.5 amp fuse, 218. It's working fine and turns on/off with the ignition.

I noticed your third picture says "* For right hand drive" at the top.
Does that apply to the entire document, or just items marked with an asterisk?
If it's the former, maybe your SA will have better info for you?

* only applies to sections of the document i didn't include in my screenshots, so what you're seeing is the US left hand drive configuration diagrams. For now, I think I'm okay. I can't imagine the airbag would just deploy or otherwise malfunction. I used a add-a-circuit with the correct 7.5 amp fuse on both sides so should be fine.
