switched 12V source/ground

[spederman]

Wiring is not my specialty, i hate figuring out wires and need some help. I'm installing my wideband gauge and i have to tap into a 12V switched power source and ground. Whats the closest wire near my steering wheel console pod? Anybody have any pics or links to pics of the wire? Thanks

I don't think widebands take much power. I think the easiest way would to pull out you dash pod. There will be switched power for running your gauges. You might even be able to reach you headlight switch. look at the colors. then a manual. then wala.

For my radar detector I used the spot in the fuse block for daytime running lights. Easy peasy.

Good ground is any chassis mount. Hot always on power or switched power, go for the headlights power source behind the headlight switch. Headlights are always on power, turn signals are ACCY/ON powered sources.
