Pink With White tracer should be your Ignition 1 wire but your accessory Wire is Purple with brown tracer but is controlled by a Resistor on the 06 model i would conect your power off the Ignition wire.

Personally i install emergency lighting on vehicles my self and i tap off the ignition wire but i run another power line off the battery for a relay to power my accessories. another words use the ignition wire to trigger the relay for your emergency accessories!.

if you need some more assistance let me know!

Yes, do not use the constant 12v @ the ign. harness, it's only protected by a 20 amp fuse. Get it at the battery OR, at the electric brake connecter above the fuse box. (big blue plug)
