re-wiring help!

I purchased a Sirius Sportster and had it installed at said store for my 2002 F150 Supercrew. Not thinking, I had it wired for run only and I want to rewire it for acc use. But I can not for the life of me, figure which wire to get into for acc and hot run? Can anyone help me out? Or is it better to plug and play to the cigarette lighter?

Any help will be greatly appreciated - thanks, - Jeff

Panzer....I'm not sure what wire it would be, but if you look in your owners manual it will show you all the fuses in the fuse panel and will tell you what each one is. You should be able to find one that's labeled accessory power or something like that.

Battery: big solid yellow wire (usually pin 1 going to HU)

Switched (Accessory) 12V: solid red wire right next to the big yellow one (usually pin 2 going to HU)

Worland - couldn't find the solid red wire, But I pulled the head unit and found the black w/ pink strip wire and tied in. Works like a dream! Thanks for the advice. Always appreciated!

Thanks,
Jeff
