[HELP] Need 12V power supply...

Hii, does anyone know which wire I can tap into under the dash which supplies 12V of power? Fused or unfused.
I'm actually looking for an unfused supply so that I can add a fuse myself so I don't blow anything else...just in case.

Thanks...

The Cigarette lighter is 12V. Why not use it?

2Hottie is an unknown quantity at this point

Do you use your 12v cigarette lighter thingy??? If not, cut the harness off the wire and use that as a power supply. That is what I did when I installed my voltmeter, ran the lines right off that. Grounded using the bolt under the whole center unit(includes radio, a/c controls, etc.). The beauty is that it is built in, so it is a fused line so you don't have to worry about any short outs or whatever...
