    Ronny,
    I ran a wire up driver's side windshield post to the overhead light and put a jack into the light. Don't remember where I got the power from under the dash but it might have been the ashtray power source since that's switched by the ignition switch and has lots of power available. I did this over five years ago and I think if you get the trim off the windshield post, the wire can be run outside the metal post.

  There is a 12 volt source inside the overhead light compartment, switched with the ignition switch (accessories).
