Test the blank slots with a multi meter I believe one side is always hot. In case you wanted to know for switched power I tapped the heated steering wheel. I had my dashcam tapped into one of the blank slots before and one time I parked the car for 1.5 weeks and battery was dead, moved to heated steering wheel and never had an issue.

so as an update to everyone, I tapped into an empty slot on the passenger side fuse panel. This unused slot stays powered at all times. The power wire I use for my Rexing VP Gen 3 Dash cam keeps the camera on 24/7 unless the battery voltage gets too low, at which point is it turns off the camera power to protect the car
