Default Stereo help

Anyone know where to tap a ACC wire and a constant power wire off the stereo harness? No nav and no ML sound. Thanks in advance.

1/2 answer:
Cigarette lighter/Acc outlets are the simplest (available in front, mid and back).

I already tried the cig lighter, but this unit requires three wires and the cig lighter is only positive and negative.

"above the sunglass holder...power to the mirror...black & red wires....I use them for my radar detector!"
What's maximum Watt of the black & red wires above the sunglass holder?

I think that three wires are
1 - 12V Acc
1 - 12V Battery
1 - Ground ???

The Ciga lighter slot can supply more than 120W. I think you can connect that 2 wires to the ciga wire.

If it bloow out please post pic..

grey/red = acc (not sure if it is ign or remote)
white/blue = constant 12v
brown = ground
