Which bit of carpet are you referring to? When I wired my dash cam in i initially went burrowing uder the carpet , effectivly where passanger puts his feet. It's NOT there. It's on the vertical bit to the right of the glovebox. The lid is a right ×××××× to get off and even worse to put back on. Others have suggested tapping into the 12v socket. Someone who has done so will be along soon.

Sorry, can't remember which fuse I used

Good choice of dashcam - I had a NextBase fitted by an auto electrician hard wired to the fuse box on the passenger footwell left side on my S90. To date had over 12 months of trouble free service from the dash cam even forget its there working away.
Sorry can't help with the actual fuse number I remember the electrician metered across ind fuses until he got one with an ignition feed and piggy backed. If you are doing the work yourself you will have to take off the passenger door floor plate to enable you to lift the carpet for the fuse box access.

Sorry I cant be of more help
