Need a + wire for clinometer light

[fourfourto]

I was just thinking one of those wires in the cluster under dash left of the wheel .Not sure what one?

Try the dash lights.

Why run it off the headlights, easiest would be to pick up the hot wire in the A-pillar and light it all the time.

What wire would work that goes off the key ?

will any of the cluster wire's work ?
not a big deal to run the wire to them.

the gray wire on the I/P connector (location B4) is the illumination wire from the BCM and should work. But i always try not to tap into any wires from the BCM if possible. It is the BCM supply voltage. Probably not a highly monitored circuit, so a few extra low amp bulbs should be ok.

The larger yellow wire running up the A-pillar is a RAP circuit wire for your sunroof module.

Thanks F5 I will either use that yellow one in pillar or go to cluster under dash if theres a light wire there.
I rather hook it up with the light if possibile.

Is there a wire in the cluster under dash,I know I picked up a ground there and a constant + I have going to a relay .I thought one of those were lights.
I will take a look tonight when I get home.

I ended up getting the power from the 2nd gray wire that goes to the rear wipper switch.It works off the light circut that way lights on clinometors on.

I had to remove the swivel base and hack saw off a plastic collor to make the bottom flush.I used thin 3M double sided tape(gray) to mount to the top of the mirror(velcro was not as secure)

Not bad for $12.95
