Radio wiring issue
Hey guys, got an 85 TA with no power to the orange radio or cigarette lighter wires. Can't figure out where they are supposed to be fed from. It comes from the fuse box correct? I have the keyswitch power, just not the direct battery feed. Anyone know where the wires are supposed to be routed?

Yes it goes to the fuse box.

This is from a 86 Firebird manual,I'm sure they are the same.

Re: Radio wiring issue
Thank you! My radio and cig lighter have no power on their orange wires, and I can't seem to locate exactly where they're routed...probably just going to wire in from the extra fuse box slots.
