Hardwire dashcam battery pack

Does anybody here use a dashcam with a hardwired battery pack ?

On my previous E-class it was easy to piggyback on the fuses, but with the EQE this seems tricky

On the driver side there's no space to do so, on the passenger side maybe, but unsure which fuse to use.

seems the 3rd fuse box is difficult to get to (somewhere in the back) ?

Apparently that's also where the fuse box diagram is for all 3 locations ?

Let me revise my question

- does anybody know where the 2 fuses are for the cigar plugs ? / Or does anybody have a copy of the fuse diagram?)

and/or

- how do i get to the fuses that are apparently underneath the rear seat?

If your rear seats can fold flat, then the seat bottom should flip foward -- check your OM for info about this. If there's a fuse block under the seat, it should have a plastic cover that pops off. You should find stowed with the fuse block a printed copy of the fuse block locations for the vehicle and a listing of fuse locations and functions.

the manual explains where the front fuse boxes are and how to open them.

but for the rear, it just states that it's under the seat and should be accesses by a workshop only.

Even though I have access to the front fuses, i have no idea what each one is for, since the diagram is under the rear seat

i can fold the seats, but the bottom is fixed and can not be opened (easily)

You've checked the front fuse boxes for a fuse diagram?

Are there vacant fuse slots in either of the accessible fuse blocks?

there are, but there's no way of knowing how they are rated...
I need at least 15A and not all slots are the same (wire wise).
i don't want to fry anything

Managed to get under the rear seats

pull front of the seat up (sides and middle)
Push the sides toward the trunk and then lift the back of the seat up . (it's a hook that keeps it in place)

Here's the fuse diagram for the whole car (both EQE and EQS)
