Best Place to Tap 12V Switched Power on '02 hoe?

[StanF]

Trying to permanently install an XM base and backup camera. Would like to tap power directly in the fusebox or ? Can anyone offer any detailed suggestions?

I preferred to go into the fusebox, but was also thinking of splicing into one of the three accessory outlets. (Actually, the accessory outlets are always on, so that wouldn't work!) I would need a circuit in the fusebox switched on/off by the ignition.

Thanks!

Stan

Old post, but for others who find themselves in this situation, you can buy something like this:

You could also plug directly into the very bottom right corner pin in the relay box on the floor to the left of the brake pedal, it is only on when the ignition is on.
