    Switched 12v+ source???

    Hey all,
    Where can i find a switched 12v+ power source (turns on and off with ignition)?

    I had wired the switched wire on my car stereo to a yellow block in where the relays are above the pedals on my B3 2.3 90 as i had found this to be live only when the ignition was on.......... but above around 3500rpm my stereo was turning off, so it is now wired live all the time again... ie i have to turn it off before getting out of the car lol.

    The thing is the switched live of my car alarm was also wired into the same block, although, it hasn't seemed to cause it any problems.......

    TIA
    Dan.

    There in a small red wire coming out the back of the ignition switch. This is the switched 12v supply.
