Default Power Source for 2010 XR5 Turbo

Hi All,

Looking at my signature, you'll see why I don't usually hang out it this part of the forum...

The misses has a 2010 XR5 Turbo and I noticed it doesn't have a "Power Source" or cigar lighter.

She has been getting by without charging her phone but I have just bought her a dash cam.

How have you guy's over come the no "Power Source" problem?
....and I don't want to run a lead all the way to the battery!

Pic's, info and or links would be ace.


Cheers,
Mark

HOLY CRAP!

Can't believe I missed that and she didn't even jerry when she filled the console with crap..

Cheers heaps.

Although, I see when the glovebox is open, there is what looks like a removable piece of plastic about the same size, can this be removed and a lighter socket fitted?
(Is there a 12v provision in there to plug into?)

Think that is for other markets who have a passenger airbag disable switch fitted there.

Here's a guide:

When I did mine, I used fuse 110 instead of 108 and I earthed it onto the 13mm bolt that holds the fusebox bracket
