Default Hardwire Dash Cam help

Getting my car hooked up with a dash cam, here's the cam and cable I ordered to tap it into the fuse. Problem is I know I probably need a blade fuse adapter but I have no clue what size fuse, which one to tap, or where to even start with that. Any help would be much appreciated.

look at the car charger that comes with the cam. It will have the amp rating on it. Use the same size for a fuse

I tapped in to Fuse 37 in the trunk for my detector. It's a 20 amp curcuit. Got the mini add a fuse from Walmart. Some say it's a Micro however mine wasn't.
