Key On Hot Wire under Dash?

Hey Guys,

Looking to wire in some accessories.

Wanted to see if you know where's the best place to grab a key on hot (+12 v) wire under the dashboard somewhere?

Thanks in advance.

I used the A/C controls for my Bel STi-R+ install. It's pretty easy to get back there. I don't remember the pin out though. I had my multimeter out.

I found a brown wire under the dash to run my pillar boost gauge. At least I think it's brown lol

Specifically, there's a harness plug that I unplugged to move the controls aside, then it was easy to probe for voltage

Brown wire it is.

Lift the steering wheel up and easy access.
