switches and fuses...
Ok so I found this wiring diagram:
But going from the switch to the fuse panel on the bottom right (I know electricity is flowing the other way) is where I have a question. Which fuse panel do you connect it to? Which fuse? I'm totally confused with it.
I have no electrical experience. I'd like to make sure my Jeep doesn't turn into a BBQ, ya know? Thanks for your help.

any empty spot that is powered when u turn the ignition to "on", like radio or interior lights, etc.....really should be any empty spot, but verify with a multi-meter
whats happening in that diagram, is that the relay gets constant fused power from the battery, the switch is getting switched power (so when u turn the ignition off, that circuit u'r adding turns off as well)....when u turn the switch on it combines with the power in the relay to safely provide extra juice to the electrical component & allow u to use smaller gauge wiring
