Is there a switched power soure in back half of Ex??
I need to wire my new backup camera to switched power.
I'd prefer to tap an existing source rather than pull a home run from the front.
I cannot use the reverse or running lights as it is plugging into my Insight and I want to be able to switch it on and off whenever I want.
Did a search and didn't find any pertinent answers. Any suggestions?

Remove the rear license plate. Then you can reach in and over to the left. There is a plug in there that connects the harness for the trailer plug. Its a pia but you can unplug it and plug it back in with one hand and some patience. Once you have it unplugged, you can pull the harness out a bit to use a test lit to identify the switched wire. Then simply use a scotch lock to tap into it.
