[QUOTE="Yardsale , post: 972951, member: 58988"] Check the voltage and when power is supplied on existing wires you that can splice (lighters are a good source - fuse protected and rarely on). Will probably find an always on 12VDC that you can use. If the clock you want operates on less than 12VDC, you can add a resister to lower the voltage, but I suspect that there will be a 12VDC clock out three you'll like. If you find a clock with a separate line for light dimming, you might connect that to the dash light dimmer switch, but that light could stay full on and toggle on and off with the dash lights. Either way. [/QUOTE]
