I extended the power wire, ran it behind the driver's side carpet (just pulled it back), then to the 15 AMP radio fuse.

I think I found where I am going to run it...
I ran my test light on the 2 hole from the left bottom of the fuse box.
It is a power source that is only hot with the key on
(I thought there might be one of those from the install on the last car I had a 93 Z28...)

I like to use the power terminals at the fuse box. There are usually some terminals there with out any fuses.

Okay the fuse box thing didn't work... It would blow the 10 AMP Fuse to the Guages

That scared the shiat out of me first time that happened....

The power source I did end up using was the Power Wire for the traction control.
