Help me add a 12v Constant somewhere in the front?

Hey guys I need to power a LOC unit and I want to re position my 12v power wire and would like it near the front of the car to avoid it being ran near the Rca cables, anywhere that I can tap into a 12v wire or add a circuit? Any help would be awesome.

What is a LOC unit? By front, you mean dash area or front of car, under the hood? Do you want a +12 ignition switched or a constant +12. Constant +12 can be found in the driver's side dash fuse box, if your looking for power in the cabin. Just use an "add a fuse".

LOC is line output converter... it's used for amplifiers to tap into a speaker for signal to the sub instead of having to pull the radio out.

Oh yeah, OK. I've always used the passive line down converters.

OP, I would suggest using 1 of the 2 fuses powered by the RAP relay, retained accesory power relay. The fuses are located at the driver's side dash area. The power stays on for approx. 10 min. after the ignition switch is shut off or the door is opened. You could use an add a fuse, but the stacked one is a tight fit and it will need bent at an angle. The fuses power the 12V acc. socket near the shifter, the other powers the acc. socket in the console.
