Is there a place inside the cab to grab power for a remote start ? I was thinking at the bcm but I wanted to see what someone that has done these trucks would use.

Thanks Joe

Omega Wire:

Constant 12 volts RED / VIOLET (20A) BCM BLUE 27 PIN CONN, PIN 4 *
* BCM (Body Control Module) is located under the driver's side dash.

Have not done one myself.

DirectWire also lists it at:
12Volts, RED / purple(20A) + BCM under drivers dash, blue 27 pin plug, pin 4....and...
second 12volts, RED / blue(20A) + BCM under dash, white 26 pin plug, pin2

If the wire you are trying to feed comes from the BCM then the Power wire(s) feeding the BCM are ideal, just split the load up on the BCM feed wires. If you need to power 3 feed wires and the BCM has only 2 Feed wires Hook the R/S Ignition feed up to one and the R/S Accessories to the other. IF the BCM has 4 feed wires use one of each for your R/S feeds. The more you can split the load up the better. You cant go wrong following what the OEM has already done. Since by adding a R/S you are coping what the Key and BCM does to start the vehicle.
