Dashcam Hardwire
Hi all!
I just got my first Benz, an '03 W203 C240. I'm looking to fuse tap my dashcam. Where would be the best fuse location to do so? Thanks!

There's a fuse box located on the driver side dash on the side I've never tapped into any fuses GL.

I honestly haven’t had the chance to look, been busy with other things and I have my focus on other Interior stuff but I’ll be taking a look soon. I’ll quote you again and update you once I finally hardwire it.

Any update ? All the fuses in the front dash are permanent live. I have checked with a multimeter
My lighter socket is usually taken and is in the centre console so not possible there.
Is there anywhere in the boot/trunk which would work ? Needs to be ignition live and not permanent
