NAS110 - Trying to figure out where I can splice in to switched power under the dash (bottom left, the easily accessible piece). Anyone else tried to do this or do I need to just fish a wire through from the fuse panel.
[This is to power a radio that I'm going to mount on the left of the dash between steering wheel and a-pillar, just a receiver so don't need a lot of amps...]
--------
On a side note, I was again last night reminded of the importance of testing before reassembly.
Had the dash apart (how did all that dirt get back there :D ), reassembled it, and then found that the engine would start (position III) but not stay running (position II) - had screwed up a wire on the key ignition. So at 10pm I'm tearing everything apart again to fix it so that I can drive home (without having to keep my starter engaged!)
