Centre Console - Fridge chiller install - Need Help

Hi guys. I have tried a search & didn't have much luck. There must be some posts here that can help me. I have a 2004 F250 7.3 TD (Australian delivery). I have purchased a Daddy Cool Fridge/Chiller centre console & need to wire it up. I need the following connections.<O

Earth<O</O

+12 constant (max 6.5A)<O</O

+12 ignition<O</O

Earth is easy, but rather than running wires all the way to the <ST1Battery I thought that there maybe both the +12 pickup points under the dash. I have found a loom labelled "customer access" that heads to the OBDll port. It has a spare red & blue. I haven't taken it any further & thought I'd check in here first.<O</O

Any help would be appreciated. Cheers.<O</O

You could tap off the power port or cigarette lighter circuit for the constant power. You could use a fuse tap and go to the fuse box for the cigarette lighter circuit, and also use another fuse tap for the ignition circuit. Something like the radio fuse would probably work for the ignition circuit.
