Default 12v line under dash?

Can someone help me identify a 12v power line under the dash?

Do you want a constant 12v or switched? If you want constant, just leave the car off and start poking wires with your meter to find 12v power. You will just have to check all the wires under the dash or under the shifter. I think that the coupes have the wiring for the electric top that the verts have, but obviously they are not hooked up. Its located under the shifter boot I think. You can use that extra power for whatever.

The convertible top wire is the one that I use. It is accessable under the shifter bezel as Jiggy_One posted, it's white with a violet stripe, and it's switched (i.e. only hot when the ignition key is on).
