    I needed a Spot to grab power from.. and Saw the Sunroof Fuse (20a) and While there was a fuse in it?.. I don't have a Sunroof (2019 Toyota Tacoma Sr5 DC) My Question is.. Is this a "Free" spot to Grab power from ?/ (I used a Hardwire to Usb adapter for The Dash cam and Gps .. used a Add a fuse (tap) setup... Just wondering if If I'm "Playing" where i shouldn't?? and while I'm on the Subject.. Which one of the Add a Fuse taps is for the original Fuse fuse Top or bottom (Closest to the Plug in part) Thanks ahead of time for any Suggestions..

    A few listed in the signature
    That is the exact fuse I used for my inline amp. Works great for me.

    Bottom for original circuit, (but you may leave it empty), top for added circuit. If you leave the bottom empty and you get no power switch the add-a-fuse around.
    BTW it's always "hot" circuit...

    Thank you.. I did Notice the Always Hot.. So I decided to get a Factory Style Switch (So the Dash Cam and Gps can be turned off) and put in the Left side Switch box (just below the Cubby hole) I just wanted to make it was a "Ok" option for grabbing power.. I did Put the original 20a but in (well not the Same one.. The Micro Mini's Don't fit in the "Add a Fuse" ) but I put a Mini 20 a back in in case something else Besides the sunroof Pulled power from there.. Thanks again.. (and yeah i know the Tacoma has a "Semi Gps" using your Phone.. but I rather see a Whole Map than the "Turn by Turn" the "Scout" Gps App uses...

    You can add the missing terminal (090//2.3II)
    https://www.corsa-technic.com/item.php?item_id=809
    and run the wire to the overhead area and have a "dedicated" hot source for radar/dash cam/disco light....
    P.S. when you do, remove the fuse before you do any "work" and also the negative terminal of the battery.
