Help Installing Cigarette/Power Unit

[alpha]

Hey guys.. need some help to hard wire a 12v cigarette unit as a second source for radar detector or gps.I will be using the original unit for ipod.

I want the unit to be active when key is on , but I don't know how to install it. On the net there is a device called "add a circuit" which is a plug and play harness but not available in Perth.

Would some one be able to instruct me what to do. I'm no expert so I won't know what fuse to use and what power the radar/gps will be chewing... all I know is that there is a red and black wire coming out of the 12v cig unit.

Cheers in advance.
