For reference. My truck is a 2013 Silverado Z71 Crew Cab. If you'd like pics of the wire under the hood I can post those.
I stopped by the local radio install shop to buy some power cable and they were nice where M enough to run in though the boot into the truck for me. He said just join connect the positive to a post on the box where fuses are under the hood that it's the same as to the battery which is on the other side of the truck. He told me to connect the negative to a post where another wire was connected on the metal right on other side of dash under the hood. They gave me a fuse that I put inline the positive that runs to the post where the fuses are. On inside I put at connector on the wire coming in to the truck and hooked it to the radio. I knew I'd have to manually turn the radio on and off until I had someone connect to a relay and whatever. This is the third time I've made sure the radio is off when exiting the truck truck but it's somehow on when I get in the truck the next day. I have no idea when it was powered on but does anyone have a clue how it is powering up on its own?
