Accessory power without pulling the head unit
Is there easy access to an accessory power lead that I can get to without having to pull the stereo head unit? Maybe something under the dash? And let me save you the trouble by saying I used the search, read a stupid number of posts that didn't answer my question, spent way to much time looking, and if you don't want to answer the question then just ignore it. Thanks in advance for any input.

Something hidden preferably. I could try and get into the center console area and tap into the wire feeding the cig lighter plug but I was hoping to find a wire I could get to without having to rip anything apart.

What are you trying to do? Depending on what it is and what options you have you could tap into the rear view mirror. If you are looking for something easier you could go with the cig lighter behind the seat. You can just pop that out and then if you need a switch or something there you could drill a small hole above the outlet and mount it there.
