Unused spades in the engine bay fuse boxes are 12v hot. Used an insulated 14g-16g female spade and used that as my hot tap. ground tap was a factory grounding point on the engine sidewall immediately behind the brake master. Photo is of the driver side fuse & relay panel.


Also puts you in a clean line for going through the "aux cable nipple" on the firewall gasket to come into the cabin immediately behind the driver left dash button panel.

See my post on installing the 18" Diode Dynamic Light Bar for more photos.

What # position fuse and what connector did you use? Thanks!

connector is:
1/4 in. Fully Insulated Wire Disconnects in Blue
(15pk can be gotten at Home Depot or Lowes for a touch over $5)

Location/position used is as pictured, that photo was fully wired and connected.

Relay and in-line fuse came with the Diode Dynamics wiring harness.

See here for more of the details along the way:
