Seeking 12 Volt Source in the Front

You will need to run your wires thru the rubber body plug behind the left front tire and into the audio cavity. From there you have many options. There is nothing under the hood that I would tap into. The harnesses have so little copper in them that tapping into a harness breaks the strands and leaves you with either low current flow or no current flowing issues. Carbon is a magnificent conductor so a rubber grommet is required. I use the one for the hood cable where it goes into the cabin. Feel free to email me and I can send a photo. Cheers

This is 181 in 2010 at the Seattle Service and Sales center 435 Westlake Ave N 98109. I know this because I took this photo. If you take a close look its held on by packing tape for a fitment test. I sold out of these but would do a group buy and make more. They are about $2500 with the 2 LED lights@josh-io posted a few prior to Carl replying to the thread that was linked to above.

Thanks for your help Carl et al. If I tap into another wire, then I'll do it right by splicing into it and not using one of those piggyback plastic things. I'll post photos when done.
Here's what I ended up doing... not sure I"m sold on it yet. But if not, easy enough to remove, just double sided tape.
The daytime photos don't do the lights justice... they are actually very bright and noticeable.
LMK know what you guys think.
