Power from Fusebox?
I have a Sirius receiver in my car, powered by the power point in the middle of the dash. I've been wanting to hardware to that, but I don't feel like tearing out the center console to do so...so I figured that I could wire it up to the Fusebox, but I don't have a clue as to where to start. Has anyone else done this or point me in the right direction? I have a nice MGW billet lighter plug I haven't been able to use because of this

Just pick up an Add-A-Circuit at the local auto parts store....Pic below...I wired my Raptor with one. I used fuse spot 14, as it is switched, and has room below it for the Add-A-Circuit. Note the pic below IS NOT plugged into slot number 14, but you get the idea. Check you manual for the fuse number locations...

I Wired Mine To The Radio Fuse. Just Snipped The Lighter Plug Off And Slipped The Hot End Under One Side Of The Fuse So It Was Pinched In The Metal Clip. Evry Time I Drive The Car The Sirius Tuner Is On And When I Turn The Key Off And Open The Door Oit Goes Off Just Like The Radio. Cost Me Nothing To Do It And Took About 5 Minutes To Get It Done

here is a better pic of the fuse box and all i did was drill a groove on the bottom of the fuse box cover so it would not pinch and i could still use it
