Where to tap?

I need a spot to tap into to get a 12V (KEY ON) current for my meth kit.

I don't want to run a wire all away around my car, so i need to know a good spot to tap into on the PASSENGER side of the car.

I deleted my A/C and Air pump, if those are possible spots, let me know.

Thanks

I would just run it right to the fuse block and tap into your radio fuse. You could also put it on the power side of your starter solinoid. I have some wiring schematics that I will look at to maybe get a better location for ya

I went threw the diagram really quick and thought of a good idea. Run a wire from your meth injection inside the car to one side of a heavy duty toogle switch and run another wire from the other side of the toogle switch to the power side of your sarter solinoid. It would also be a good idea to have a fuse between the meth pump and the starter wire.

I know you can get a 12v source from here because I run my power wire from my MSD box right to the solinoid. Hope this help. Good luck

And the power will only come on when the key is on, and will stay on as long as the car is running?

Yes it will if you run your pump right to the solinoid, but make sure you have a fuse between the pump and the solinoid. On my MSD box I used a 30A fuse, but I dought you will need that, maybe a 20A.
