12V Outlet Radar Detector

Is there a 12V outlet in the W223? If not, where are people plugging in a radar detector?

Yes there is a 12volt outlet on the passenger side. 12-volt outlet in the lower part of the dashboard, near the glove box.

Does anyone have a recommendation on which fuse to tap into on the driver's side? I've tapped into 206 (hud) and 207 (radio). Both seem to be constant on and not switched which is contrary to what I expected. I have a 2026 GLE so I' assume the function name is the same across different models.

Are they constant hot, or delayed shut off? In my car several (including radio) seem to stay hot for a period of time before shutting off.

I am not sure if they are delayed shutoff. When I have more time, I can wait to see if it is the delayed shutoff next time I look into it. I was hoping I could learn faster from someone else so I don't have to experiment as much. I was also asking in case some of these are pulsed instead of continuous power.
