I'm installing a cd changer in a 1998 Dodge Intrepid. It's one of the type that connects through the FM antenna jack on the stereo. My question though is what's the best place to go for the power hook-ups? It's needs one constant and one switched.

I've installed plenty of stereos where power is always supplied through the harness. This is a first time for me where I just have two power lines by themselves. Should they go all the way to the fuse block or is there somewhere else I can connect them? Many thanks for any help.

I usually look for an open spot in the fuse box.  There is usually a terminal you can plug a spade into. Its probably marked. You can check your owners manual if you need to for the fuse box layout.
