I'm trying to install a hardwire for an Escort 8500 radar detector. I need to find a ingnition on only wire to tap for the install. I have a 2003 Tahoe LS.

Any suggestions?

TIA

speedometer fuse.

Thanks for the ignition fuse answer. This detector came with a wire tap clamp, I was hoping to find a good wire to attach this too, otherwise I'll have to cut the end of the wire to hit a fuse.

Thanks again,

John

You may have already solved your problem but.......I got a fuse extender from Autozone and just plugged it into the radio fuse slot then ran it under the pillar cover up to the 8500. Nice and clean.

THANKS! That should do it. I haven't done anything as I've been under the weather, and now in Chicago the weather is on us ;')

I'll give that a shot. Thanks again.

is there any 12v relays in the sunroof, overhead console that can be used and if so how do you pull down the console, its an 06 z71

I am also planning on perm install of an 8500. Any thoughts on how to mount without the suction cups. Sun visor seems to thick for a clip. Any thoughts appreciated, Thanks
