Is there an easy and safe place to pickup hot and switched power for a Dash Cam?

I’ve bought the FitCamX style of dash and for all of my cars, two from AliExpress and two FitCamX. Dash cans are a rabbit hole, and I wanted simple and stealth installs. Mine do not record when the power isn’t on, I.e. when parked.

At the drivers side dash fuse panel there are 3-4 vacant slots at the upper right when looking at it. I forget which ones are switched but they are definitely there. I have my dash cam and radar tapped in at that location. Ran wiring along A pillar and headliner to dash cam mounted near the rear view mirror.
