Accessory fuse in distribution box?

[slaughterrt]

Quick question guys. I installed auxiliary lights on my explorer (down where the tow hooks would be, below the grill). I have them about 90% wired up, but then hit a snag. I wanted to wire the "switch" side of my relay to an accessory power source under the hood because I want to use them as daytime running lights. Problem is that I can't find an accessory power source in my distribution/fuse box. I would like to have the running lights come on when the car is in accessory/running and I would rather not go through the firewall into the interior. I checked several of the sources in the exterior fuse box under the hood and they were always hot (car was off). Is there an accessory power source under the hood that I can wire off of? Or am I basically screwed into going into the interior fuse box?

Thanks guys

hot at all times

According to my 2000 wiring diagrams all of the fuses in the battery junction box under the hood are hot at all times.

Well that's what I was afraid of. I guess I will have to run it inside the vehicle. Thanks.
