How do I hardwire Escort 8500 x 50 Radar to fuse box?

Before i get flamed with not using a search, i did use it and all of the search is for the stealth cord to hardwire to the homelink.

Unfortunately i don't have a homelink on my g37 so i routed the cord all the way to the fuse box. But i can't find a 12 volt source and i don't have a multimeter (yet) so hopefully someone on the forum knows a 12 volt source by the fuse box.

Thanks in advance.

yeah basically you couldve just pulled the fuse out and stuck the wire in one side then put the fuse back in. Still need to ground it though, but im guessing you bought the hardwire kit?
