Possible to make glovevox 12v always hot?

Hey guys, installing a new dashcam and I want to know if it's possible to make the 12v in the glovebox always on?

Honestly, it's super simple to just buy some add-a-fuse adapters and power it out of the fuse box like I did. Check out my blog post about my specific installation if you want more details.

I'm worried about it voiding my warranty if I tap into the fusebox

Have a certified mechanic wire you a safe constant 12V source if you want to fret over your warranty.
