Need Wiring Help 06 T4R

[dheeter]

I am trying to install a direct wire power cord for my radar detector and I need to know the location and color of the wire to the cigarette lighter in the 06 4runner. If anyone has wired anything like this your expertise would be much appreciated. Also if anyone knows of an easier/better way to do this please let me know. Thanks.

JUST GO TO THE FUSE BOX. PICK A FUSE THAT TURNS ON/OFF WITH IGNITION KEY.

2 WIRES COMIN OFF RADAR CORD(+ & -)
TAKE POSITIVE AND STRIP AND TWIST AROUND ONE OF THE LEGS OF THE FUSE U CHOSE.

GROUND THE 2ND WIRE TO ANY METAL OF CAR. THATS IT REAL EASY.

Thanks for the reply, unfortunatly the positive and negative wires are plugged into a connector that plugs into a piece that has to splice into a wire. It basically tries to make it a cleaner process but eliminates tying into a fuse.

JUST CUT THE PLUG/CONNECTOR.

OR THEY MAKE FUSE TAPS ALSO.
LITTLE BRASS CONNECTORS THAT SLIP OVER THE LEG OF A FUSE THEN SLIP THE CONNECTOR ONTO THE BRASS CONNECTOR.
WHATS YOUR EMAIL I WILL SEND U A PIC.
