im trying to get to a 12+ ignition source. im trying to avoid having to run the wires to the cabin to get access. can i splice or run my wire of a fuse or some source that is easy accessible in the engine compartment?

what exactly are you trying to do, there might be space in the fuse box to add a fuse
