12v power with key on??

Does anybody know of a 12v key on power supply wire that I can tap into at the fuse box of an '06 Ranger? I need to wire in my acc recepticle in the glove box but I don't need it active all the time. I'm looking for a supply I can piggyback that is energized only when the key is in 'RUN'.

Also does anybody know where the door chime unit is located, other than in the dash? I'd realy like to disconnect it, unless this somehow messes with the 'brain' of my truck.

Thank you.

Don't know about your switched 12V source, might want to try Autozone's website (I think I've seen a few schematics on there)...

I found my desired tap, Grey W/Yellow Stripe at the fuse box. I actualy found it by probing the wires at the ignition.

I was going to suggest a test light, but I'm guessing you got it figured out!!
