Switched power live while cranking?

Evening,

I have recently bought a dash cam for my tai (too many idiots on the roads these days!) and am trying to wire it in to a switched feed that stays live while cranking the engine.

At the minute, the only switched fuses I've tried piggy backing off (don't worry, it's approved by the dash cam supplier!) cut out while cranking the engine, so cut the dash cam out, which switches it off!

Any ideas? Preferably a feed from the main passenger compartment fuse board...

If you take the cover off under the steering wheel in footwell there is a terminal under there that is a switch live and another one thats a permanent live but you would have to check of its live during cranking the engine.
