Usually the Constant 12V wire is fused in the fuse box in the engine compartment. Generally the ignition (12V) wire is fused in the fuse box inside the car.

I would check on the fuses under the hood before running additional wiring.

It is extrememly good practice to make your own ground though, as factory grounds are usually fairly long.
