2020 GLC - Trim removal - service manual?

Is there any type of service manual for the GLC?

Looking to tuck my dashcam wires cleanly, but can't seem to find any detailed instructions on how to remove some of the trim (e.g. A pillar, B pillar, glove box side panel, etc.).

I don't want to force it, since the last thing I want to do is to destroy my interior trim.

A service manual would be extremely helpful for my little project.

Have a look on YouTube
The c class is similar, here’s the video I used, albeit I ended up running the wire into the centre console power outlet as the fuse box power supply is switched and powers down with the stop/start system
Noting, my dash cam does not have an internal battery.

That's a good video. Would've helped me last week.

The clock fuse is always on. I tapped it for my dashcam.

@snrbrtsn that was a really good video, thanks!

Now I'm trying to install the rear camera. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to get the wire from the roof headliner to the top of the rear liftgate door.

I've seen this video:

It helped a little, but would be good if anyone know of another more detailed video/instructions.

Excellent video. Thanks for making the effort to record it and posting. Just one observation: it's important that the fuse tap is orientated correctly so that the current travels through the fuse instead of by-passing it. One should check which is the live feed with a multimeter, so the left blade of the fuse tap is plugged into the live/line feed, as described here:
