Hardwire Radar Detector?

2018 SS 1LE with PDR.
Just received my RV mirror mount from Blendmount for my V1 Radar detector.
I have the power cord \ tap to try and grab some power.
The RV mirror is out.
There is no power coming out of there to tap.
How about the PDR Camera?
The Camera housing affixed to the top of the windshield.
Has anyone with a PDR tapped and broken into this box and found current for your Radar Detector?

Passenger seat belt light? Up in the headliner where your map lights are?

This thread helped me out. I also have wiring diagrams. On the diagram it is labeled violet/white rather than purple/white. And honestly the white is more of a dingy yellow. But it is the only striped wire in that cluster. The other 3 wires only activate when passengers are in the chair or not. The actual passenger seat belt light is always on and gets constant 12v. The on / off light are sensor activated by the seat.
