    Any switched ignition live or any permanent live form the fuse box. It doesn't really matter which. If you go for ignition live you can make sure you don't flatten your battery by leaving your satnav connected all the time. The earth can be connected anywhere on the body work.

  5. Straight from the fuse box with a hefty wire, just in case you get tempted to plug something else into it
