    Anyone know of an easy spot to get +12v from the ignition feed?

    Cigarette lighter, alternatively you can grab a circuit tester and check for any yellow wires which are mainly power and tap into there. Just make sure you turn your ignition on so you know it goes on and off with ignition.

    The power feed for the interior fans? Fuel pump circuit?

    Those are two I can think of, the AC would probably be the easiest.

    directly off the ignition barrel would be the easiest although the wire is quite thick and might be a bit hard for you to splice into if you haven't done it before, what do you need the ignition feed for?

    I only need it to run the Wideband Oxy sensor gauges so about 3 amps at the most. Would rather have them work when the ignition is on and not the accessory (current set up)

    I use the WBO2 for tuning and logging data
