I need help! I have had my sportster 5 connected to power via cigarette lighter and I'm tired of seeing it stick out so I recently bought a TSS Radio sirius xm power hardwire kit model # MCHK2, I have the 5 volt harness connected to it but don't know how to connect it to the vehicles electrical system so it turns on and of with my truck instead of being plugged into the cigarette lighter that always has power must manually turn on and off the radio and that also is a pain. Detailed help please? What tools do I need? And pictures or videos on how to would be greatly appreciated if possible!
 
You will need to find a wire that is powered only with ignition. If you have a factory radio or an aftermarket radio that uses a harness to use the factory wiring look up which one is the power on ignition wire.
