Hardest part was getting a decent grounding point. For the hot wire, look for a switched wire and connect to it with a crimp splicer.

There is a plug on the fuse box that is already switched. Just crimp a female spade on there and you are set. There is also a grounding screw down there you can hook it on to. If you want some help, just hit me up.

Not too hard. Wired up V1 and Passports to these spots with ordinary phone cable and fuse adapters. Be careful when "popping off" the lower interior kick panel to run wires, there is a hidden screw near the door opening...
