How do you get to the fuses behind the glove box on a 5008 ? There is a video posted somewhere how to reveal the fusebox but the car is a left hand drive and you just pull the panel cover off !
Thanks,

Would not be surprised if you need to remove the glovebox !!

Right chaps,got access to the fuses behind the glove box and looking at the fuse diagram,
Fuse F2 is unused.
Should I use that for the dashcam or should I piggyback onto something like the rear wiper or trailer presence/rain sensor ?
Thanks,
Paul.

If there's the female terminal (bit that grabs onto the spade terminal/contact of the fuse) on both sides of the fuse slot (so that the piggyback isn't wobbly, I'd use it. (As unused, it might be that the 'outgoing/downstream' side isn't populated with the contact/terminal, not sure how exactly they do things now.

Otherwise I would probably use the fuse that feeds the cig.lighter socket.
