Dash cam

Hi does anyone know where to get a switchable feed for a dash cam. all passenger side fusebox feeds seem permanently live.
need to mount a piggyback fuseholder that is only live when ignition on?
any help appreciated. Very Happy

I used the 5th fuse along from the left on the top row to power my camera, remove the fuse, put it in the piggyback holder and put the piggyback holder in the existing fuse socket. This is on a 2007 model (may be different fuse on other years)

Ok thanks, I'll try that one. - is that a switched live then? i tried a few in that box and left them connected to a multimeter and then locked the car. After 20 mins they were all still live. i dont really want my camera permanently powered. just want on when driving.
