12 volt power in cab
All my upfitter switches and pass through wires are used up. Has anyone found an in cab wire that can safely be used for 12V power? thanks in advance for any input.

There are two wires that are in the bundle near the upfitter and pto wires.

there is a white w/blue stripe that is fused at 10a and is switched power

also a white w/violet stripe appears to be hot all the time and not sure if fused or not

White with blue worked great. Thanks again.

Seems to me this would be "tech folder" material. Always nice to know, especially the un switched source.

Do you know if these would be available in an 07? I already have something hooked up to the white w/lt blue switched power, but I am looking for a constant or that would work with accessory and power, like the radio.
