Is it a cigarette lighter plug (I'm thinking no), or do you splice into the 12v wiring. If that is the case, how do you get to that wiring? Hopefully, the question makes sense. Thanks in advance!
Yes the units I got came with cigarette lighter adapter to plug strait into one, I used the open plug inside the console area, I picked up one of them 3 into 1 adapters and was able to just plug them in there that way they cut off after the two hours like all of the cig. ports except the one on the dash that goes off right away. You could also just pull the cig. plug in the center console out and the wire right into the back of it there, depending on your units and what type of wiring it comes with.
You can simply pull the plug up, it just slides into place.

Hope that helps if not let me know and I try and get some pics when I get some time.

Oh forgot to say Welcome to the forum since your a new member and there lots of good information here.
