Hey I just forgot and am way to lazy to find out myself. but are the cigaret lighters and 12v outlets in the front console switched. meaning they turn off with the car or are they always hot?

So exactly what are you trying to do??? Don't make us guess. I'm sure you can find some switched power in the console, dash, etc. but depending on what you're trying to do it may not carry the current. So just say what you're trying to accomplish & maybe we can help.

dh... Look at PhilDs post above. You don't have to go to the battery. Just the fuse box on the drivers side end of the dash inside the cab. Going through the firewall is a pain in the ass so you may want to use his suggestion.
