So I hard wired my Garmin Dash cam today and used Fuse block adaptors to tap into the fuse block. I used the ACC wire and tapped into the F57 Seat Heat but I am not sure where to tap for Constant Power. One video I saw suggested the F94-TPM but this is not available on my 2023 Rubicon. Any thoughts on which fuse to tap into for Constant Power?

The video I was referencing was for a 2021 JT

Do you have the aux switches? If you do, under the glove compartment has an ignition on wire and always on wire you can use that's bundled with the aux switch wiring. That's what I used for mine.

Wouldn't that then eliminate one of my Aux switches for future use?

Nope, the aux switch bundle contains wiring for all 4 aux switches + a switched ignition on wire + an always on wire. I'm using all 4 of my aux switches in addition to my hardwired dash cam.

Keep in mind only factory installed aux switches have this. If you add the OEM aux switches yourself you do not get those extra two interior wires

I did a T-harness off the 12v socket and ran the power line up the A pillar.

I can't find a constant power. I thought I had found some but the two that I had tested and looked to have power after ignition off don't work for the dash cam. Same with my wrangler.
Would love to know of a confirmed constant on as I don't have the aux switches.
