2013 EURO W212 E250CDI Blueefficiency 4-Matic 212.082

About to permanently install a Viofo A119 MINI2 Dashcam with parking coverage and i have already found switched 12v power in the trunk fusebox, either one of them.

Fusebox W212 trunk right side.

Now i am looking for PERMANENT 12v can anyone tell me best place to draw power from?

My thoughts strayed off to the 12v auxillary battery in the trunk, but that wouldn be correct, right?
BTW the car is driven daily.

You really need to trace a schematic to locate the power feed you need.

Why not start from the OCP module?
It has uninterrupted power near dashcam mounting location.
