How about an empty plug you can use without butchering your harness?

Behind the dash in the area of the headlight and wiper switches there is a flat yellow connector with 3 plug sockets in it. It will accept a round electrical plug. you can get the crimpon plugs at radio shack or an autoparts store.

The plug has key switched 12V

I just ran a wire off the battery into the cab for the constant for my radio. even put a fuse on it about a foot after the battery just incase.

if you dont want to do what ultimatereality said you could get you a long piece of battery cable and run into the cab with a big fused distribution block that way you would always have a safe constant 12v source that wouldnt burn your truck down one day.
