Hardwire Dash Cam

What would be the best way to hardwire a dash cam on our cars so it has a constant power feed when vehicle is switched off, anyone else done anything similar?

I installed a motion activated dashcam a few months ago. Already used it three times, lol.

I tapped into a constant power source on the driver side door fuse panel. Could also tap into the cd changed power line that's in the dash (if you have a cd changer).

Thanks which fuse did you tap off I need constant power for the parking mode so the camera runs constantly.
