There is a constant 12v in the radio harness to keep the programmed radio stations in memory.

You can always go to fuse box with a meter........with the car off and find it!
I think one side of the room fuse(15a) is always 12v isn't it?

oops...you're right. The key does have to be switched to at least the first position to get power there. That must not be the green wire I was thinking I'd tapped into before. The largest gauge green wire you see by the fuse kick plate? But as suggested put a multimeter to it first.

Very true, but not if you don't want to mess with the extra wiring and running it through the firewall. Also....needs and inline fuse(as Jon316G points out) either way.....from the battery or from anywhere where it is constant.....like one side of the room fuse.
