I am planning on installing an aftermarket audio system to my car and was wondering how you guys have been tapping into the stock power system? In my previous ride, I was able to simply able to tap in at the positive battery terminal with a ring connector. However, the TL setup makes this a little more difficult with all of the covers and such. I would like to have a stock looking setup with the power wire hidden. Also, I have been told by some local installers that they tap into the fuse/distribution box rather than the battery terminal. Of course, I plan on having a fuse located on the battery side and the wire running through the firewall via grommet (kind of elementary, but I’ve seen a lot of unsafe DIY systems out there).

Any advice (especially pics of how you’ve done it) would be greatly appreciated!
