Hard wiring a Dashcam to my EP3

Hi folks,

I am trying to hardwire my Dashcam into my EP3, the camera has a park record feature that senses movement around the car and records while the car is stationary.
The wiring kit has two feeds via a fuse that sits in the fuse box one is acc and one is constant 12v , my question is where can I plug this into the fuse box below the steering column that will give me constant 12v. The Acc one can feed off the cig lighter fuse I assume, but not sure if there is a constant 12v in the fuse box, hopefully someone can help with my problem.

Regards
Baz
 
Not sure Baz but would the hazard light switch have a constant feed as it works without the ignition on?

I did think of that but that fuse is located in the fuse box under the bonnet if I remember correctly, thanks for the suggestion.

I don't know the EP3 layout but does it have the 'option connector' slot ?

I know the 8G and 9G do and that is the perfect save way to wire in accessories.
 
I have one running in mine, well not used it for a while as the last insurance company said it was a must.

I just used one of these into an ignition live on the fuse box

Connected a cigarette socket into it and run the cable down the a pillar on the drivers side and plug it in, grounded around that area as well, so no splicing and I can easily take it out if needs be
