Can anyone tell me where the red lead from the silver socket plugs in as it travels towards the steering wheel? 76 Bay.

Thanks!

Amen to that! I decided to pull the original wire and run it to a fused location on my blue sea fuse box.

What is that saying about great minds?

Do you want it to have power when the key is off, or only when it is on?
