Cigarette lighter
 
Hi I'm new here. I searched past threads but could not find an answer, maybe some of you can help.
I have a 98 Ram regular cab 4x4.I need to remove the lighter from the dash so I can tap into the wiring. I have a CB radio (mostly to use the PA feature) that I want to power so that it is off when the key if off. Or, if anyone knows a better place to tap into the electrical system to accomplish this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

the power wire on your stereo
would be a good place

if you got that figured out, how did you get the face plate off to pull the stereo out? I need to put an inline adapter for my Sirius Satelite radio...

If you tap into your cigarette lighter wireing, chances are, it will be hot all the time. I would break out the owners manuel, go to the fuse locations, and find a fuse that isn't being used, but is off when the ignition is off, and tap into that.
