    I have a little amplifier that I'd like to hard wire up front and I'm looking for suggestions as to the best place to do that. Should I run wires to the fuse box? or to the the cigarette lighter? It's a little 12 volt 6 amp amplifier Bhat I have between my Garmin 660 and a speaker to increase the sound of the speaker when I use the Bluetooth feature. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!!!

    No one? I know about the outlet up front, but I want to hard wire the unit. Looking for ideas and experience please.

    Take it from the under-dash fuse block like I did for my 12V outlet. Somewhat shown here:

    I saw that, thank you. What do you think of the add on circuit lines from Autozone?
