Default Car Stereo Devise Powering Question

I bought a Bluetooth unit for my stereo and it requires that it be powered on its own. The instructions say the following:

Yellow wire: To terminal always supplied with power reguradless fo ingnition switch position.

Black wire: To ground (vehicle metal body)

I get the black wire, I can do that, but where do I plug in the yellow wire? The fuse box or what? What and how do I do it?

Thanks for any help.

It doesn't matter what kind of device it is, I just really wnat to know how to supply power to it. If it was a CB radio I am sure it would get power from the same place. Just need to know where to get power from. Do I just pick a slot in the fuse box?

You can wire it anyway you want. As long as one is power and one is grounded.

Id just splice it from the Headunits power. Red is acc. and Yellow is constant. SPlice it into the acc. so that it isnt on when the car is off.

For those of you that read this later in a search.

A dealer told me that there is a male power supply connector under the dash in the fuse box for accessory devices. It is in the next to the driver door. In the box if you are looking at it, it is in the upper left, a plastic bar from the panneling goes across in front of them. There are two different connectors the one on the left is always powered. Test this with a test light.
