Default Where should I get pwr for noids and heater relays?

I was looking for some ACC power to tap with a add a circuit for the noids and the bottle heater, but I am just about to run everything continuously hot, since I can't find any. Is there any easy to access place to tap ACC power at least for the relay coils ?

I am about to go off the cig lighter that is ACC only power.

Yes I am fusing everything and using relays

Which pin on the relay are we talking about here?

I am running the big power into and out of the relay straight off the batt fused of coarse,
I think I will just grab acc power to hit the relay coils with the switched acc power from the 12 V. cig lighter it should only be a few mA.

The add a fuse will not allow the fuse door to go back on. They stick out too much.

I am in the same situation as the op, I dont know where to go to for the keyed 12v source. I think thats what he is asking for. A lot of people keep telling me to just go into the fuse box, but I dont know how and still be able to close the fuse door and not look trashy. Somebody else told me about the cigarette lighter, but I was always under the impression that cigarette lighters are constant power, is this true or not?

On my 01 the cig lighter with the lighter itself is batt pwr and the other 12V power port closer to the passanger is the switched ACC only. But grab your cel charger and verify.

Depending on amp draw you can use a couple of wires pre-existing under the dash. Pink wires are generally a switched 12+.
