Need a 12v switched power source in engine bay
Hey guys, I'm converting my '95 F350 over to a dual electric fan setup and am in need of a switched 12 volt power source in the engine bay, that is only powered up when the key is in the 'ON' position.
I've gotten the rest of the wiring completed, and the dual 12" fans are mocked up and fitting perfectly with the custom shroud I had made! I have a manual override switch installed already as well, I just need to find a switched 12v source to power the relay of my fan control unit, so that the temperature stays at an acceptable level.
Anybody got any ideas? Preferably on the passenger side of the engine bay if possible?

There was a pair of them in my 87 diesel in the engine harness plug. For my swap, I repurposed one for my voltage regulator and the other for my ign + on the electric fan relay. I have a PDF of the Haynes manual with a set of wiring diagrams, which is how i found the ones i needed. Is you truck a gas or diesel?
