In cabin 12v constant

So using this diagram: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showpo...0&postcount=24

to hook up my dual halos it looks like I just need to find a 12v source for the switch, since I'm puting it on the drivers side of the center consol thing I was hoping one of you could suggest a wire to tap into. Since I have a non-rs and can turn on my running lights (power for halos) without the key in the ignition, I want to be able to switch from white to blue at all times. So what is my easiest/best option? Thanks!

Yes, that way I can flip the switch, and turn on my running light without putting my key in and have the blue halos on and not be stuck with just white without the key

Dual halos have one power and two grounds for the dual halos. So do you have a switch that lets you switch between the two colors?

Yes, I have the switch and the relay, what wire is easiest to tap into the get the power I need for the switch that would provide power at all times so that I don't need to the key in the ignition to get blue to turn on

I would just check your manual for a 12v fuse in the driver side fuse box
