Newbie here, wondering how to best wire my radio into my 94 Dodge Ram. Go to battery or to fuse panel? Haven't done it before any suggestions would be great. Thanks

An oldie but a goodie!
Looking for the old "golden Shovel", again.

On mine I ran the power directly to the battery positive and the ground to a bolt under the hood that goes straight into the front driver side fender.
Works great. Never a problem.
(Especially if you get into the habit of keeping your battery terminals clean)
