unfortunately I need yo be able to use the 12v power/cig….. thanks

 

got it off….had look and measured

 

cheaper and easier to get the cigarette lighter usb plug, they make them with dual charge ports, many styles to choose from as well

 

there is another 12v power port on backside of console

 

True

 

That's where I plug in my inverter, and it rests in the rear cup holder.

 

Is there a thread any where with wiring diagram? I have the hardest time navigating.
Im looking to see where I could safely get continuous 12v power

 

You probably could figure it out by looking at the fuse box diagram or using a test light or VOM. All of the "spare" fuses on the BCM are switched and on the RAP circuit. The easiest place for constant 12V is the cig lighter wire, it is fused at 15 or 20 amps. #29 underhood.
I am guessing you are installing an after market radio. The stock wiring harness provides constant 12V, it is the switched voltage that is required.

 

actually I am going to wire in some USB charging ports….2, both are 3amp max. so its not going to be a large current draw. Kind of like to stay away from cig. lighter since post I read says it also powers OBD2.
The RAP circuits sound great but be nice if I could charge my phone or whatever when car is parked.

 

And kill the battery? If you put a fuse on your circuit that is smaller than 20 A it will blow before damage is done. The power to the OBD port only serves as a point to measur voltage and to run a OBD scanner.
