Best Place to Wire a Cutout? I was thinking of using the wires for my 12v acc. plug, but it's a constant on. I'd rather a switched source. What do most of you guys pull the power from on your electric cutout?

+1 on the pink TCS wire, worked great for my RR cutout, but I don't have TC. For the ground I used one of the screws inside the console next to the airbag sensor. I found a DPDT mini-toggle switch at an electronics store that I mounted in the side of the ash tray instead of using the huge switch that came with the cutout.
This may be more info than you asked for, but its stuff that would have helped me when I did mine.

I ended up using the cig. lighter as well. I have the switch located in the ash tray. BTW: Anyone have a spare ash tray? I only have a hole there under the flip back lid and want to cut a hole in the ash tray, then have the switch in that hole.
