I've recently purchased a Autometer D-PiIC and installed it in the in the lower middle of the instrument panel, left of the cigarette lighter. Now it needs connection to a power source that works via the ignition switch, the dash lightning and a goog engine ground. Where is the best place and the easiest place to connect it? I don't want to disassemble 50% of the dashboard if possible. Any suggestions? Please let me also know the colors of the cables onwhich the D-PIC has to be connected.
Thanks for every answer.

RAP (retained accessory power) lead such as the
switched lead of the radio...lemme see if I recall ( I'm an old man:))...2000 Camaro correct.....I beleive in the fuse panel it calls out RADIO.....the RAP lead is right there.....I want to say it is a pink wire....you should be able to find the RAP 12V Switched lead in the fuse panel..look for radio...test it with a simple volt meter to insure you have switched power.....
