Need 12v from Overhead console which turns off with ignition

[escapesg]

Can someone provide any info (or a wiring diagram) for the two connectors that go to the overhead console (with dome/map lights and sunglass holder)? This is for 2013 Explorer XLT (not Limited, since wiring for Limited is different)

I want to power up a Dashboard Camera / Recorder off that console, so I need +12v which turns off with ignition.

Any help would be appreciated..

Also it would help if you added the model (XLT) to your profile so it always shows in the margin. That would be helpful for the rest of us.

Thank you Peter, I got it going for now - tested voltage in the specified circuit, so far so good. Will hook up a 12-to-5v converter tomorrow and report (I hope there will be enough current). Cheers from Toronto!
