Power wire under dash

RE: Power wire under dash
Here is the power diagram for the radio, but I agree with the above. Make the radar detector wire longer and run it to a fuse box (same one at the top of this diagram). Then zip tie the wire up along the bottom of the dash.

RE: Power wire under dash
Thanks BigDave, is that the fuse box in the passenger kick panel or the one under the hood in the engine bay? I would rather not have to run a wire to the engine bay box and just lift a fuse and press bare wire under it if I dont have to. I wanted it to look as professional as possible and keep it all out of site.

The SJB is supposed to be under the passenger kick panel, but I've never actually seen it myself.
Here are a couple of diagrams. I would tap off either the radio fuse or the fuse running to the trans shift selector (both 10A fuses). They are at the bottom of the diagrams. (F7 or F20)

RE: Power wire under dash
Hey on that diagram sheet for the junction box, there are a few labeled "not used" on that list, technically couldnt I just run a wire up to that not used slot and then push in a 20 amp fuse and leave it at that?

I did not look that close, but yes you could use an unused slot. A 20 amp fuse for a radar detector? Talk about overkill! I doubt if the cop shooting the gun draws that kind of load...

RE: Power wire under dash
Take a voltmeter to the prongs to see? Should have a hot side of the fuse slot and a downstream cold side.
I don't see on the wiring diagram where F9 and F13 are wired to anything. They may be hot through an incoming power trunk?
BTW, I replied to your PM
