[V8] Radio wiring, could use some help

[ville.hiivola at suomi24.fi]

I spliced into the rear window curtain-switch wiring to get ignition 
power. I think it's easiest, since it's right above the radio. That way 
i don't have to turn off the radio everytime i shut the car down.

>> Ok, Thanks again all!
