Dash cam hardwire

I just bought a BlackVue DR650GW-1CH dashcam with park mode and a power magic pro hardwiring kit. I need some help installing.

This is the fusebox in the trunk. I have minimal experience with electrical and I want to know how some of you guys did it. Which fuse did you use for the BATT (+) and ACC (+)? Also, will choosing those fuses still work with park mode?

I'm currently deciding on putting the ACC (+) to fuse number 74 which according to the list is the keyless go. Not sure where to put the BATT (+) wire. Any info or suggestions would be appreciated.

Using the thread below related to a W212 might be helpful. He used ACC on fuse 71, which appears to be the lighter in both W204 and W212. For BATT he used fuse 38 - check it for constant power with a multimeter. It seems to have the same description on both W204 and W212 fuse charts I've found.
