This place usually has the best prices, unless there
is a sale elsewhere:  http://www.sjmautotechnik.com/

There is a blank slot on the fuse panel (side of
dash, just inside drivers door) with switched power.
I think there is a writeup on audiworld tech showing
the correct one, but with a voltmeter I managed to
find an empty slot.  Once you find the slot, a little
McGuyvering is required to attach the V1 hot lead.
Rather than trying to access the rear of the fuse
panel, I doctored up a fuse using a drill and a
dremel so that I could solder the V1 lead to one
end of the fuse.  Also, a spade lug of the correct
size would fit (make sure there is a fuse in the
circuit though). The ground can attach pretty much
anywhere in that area, just find a screw that buzzes
zero ohms to chassis ground.
