: Thanks, Jon! Do I have to go through the firewall to find a wire that's only hot when ignition is on (like the ciggypoop lighter), or is there a location in the under-hood fuse box?

   
   You can probably find a wire under the hood (might have to probe
around a bit with a multimeter or test light; a FSM would be helpful
also), but if all else fails, you should be able to bring it through
the firewall without too much trouble.
