    Plug the UHF CB into accessories power supply ?

    I got a icom 440n uhf cb that I want to plug into the accessories powersupply, so that the radio come on when I turn the key an goes off when I remove the keys.
    Where abouts do I find the power connector to the accessories ?

    I have the new Simpson edition Patrol.

    this set up may annoy you a little, a friend has done this and gets frustrated because of it but if you do want to do it that way you can connect it via a relay from the positive on the cig plug on the dash it will be the centre point on the back of the plug but there are many places you could get it from but this is the easiest to describe just make sure you use a relay or your cig plug may blow if you use the uhf radio and another accessory via the cig plug

    You could also have a switch that makes it full time on or switch to accessories quite easily. but if you plan on putting a lot of accessories that run off your accessories you may want to just set a perminant fuse box under the dash with a high amperage relay for aftermarket gear. will make it easier in the long run
