Default Dash cam output power location

How do you power a Dash cam? The accessory power outlet in the center console is on all the time. I also have a GPS to plug in. I don't want to unplug them every time I turn the car off. 2013 C6.

Can't it be hardwired into your fuse box area...

The wiper washer fuse in the floor board fuse box is a switched power
fuse. Get yourself a add a fuse (the small one). It is under a separate cover on the right hand side of the fuse box if I remember correctly.

Does it's power turn off when the car is turned off? I would like to run a wire to the center console so I could put in a 12v plug that would loose it's power when the car is turned off.

Yes it does. And, if I remember, you can unplug the fuse for the cigarette lighter and 12 v aux outlet and wire them to the wiper washer fuse to give you 2 points that are on/off with the ignition.
