As per my other thread I am soon to be wiring up a dashcam in the our new ford system max, after damage in a car park.

The blackvue power magic box, which monitors battery & powers the dashcams (one up front, small cheap one at rear) needs to be switched live, permenant live and the ground.

The ground I will find via a ground screw, but given the choice of the below can anyone suggest the best fuses to piggy back off (using a standard piggyback fuse spur)?

Below are the ones within the cabin, to save me butchering a route from engine bay to cabin.

Welcome any suggestions, thanks!
