2018 M2 fuse box location

Sorry if this has been answered before, I did try the search and still cannot find the answer.

Is there a fuse box in the F87 around the glove box?
I'm looking at options for hardwiring a radar detector and usually use a 12V switchable fuse from the glove box area fuse box in all of my cars.

Thank you

No mate, the fuse box is located in the boot/trunk under the removable floor panel.
I used a wire tap to hardwire my RD and was able to just tap into the area behind the rear view mirror.

I used this DIY.

Thank you. Just was reading it too.
I don't see the specifics for the 2018 M2.
As in which wire goes where in the mirror.

My pre LCI was as per the DIY however this post indicates it may be different wires for LCI models.
