yesI know the connections you are talking about and you should find one of those that has power only with the key on; however you should still use an inline fuse for the lights.

just get a tester and you can figure out which one it is... it will only be on when the ignition is...

if you just need a power supply ,, do as Sir suggested, turn the key on, get a test lite, hook the clip side to a good ground and touch the pin in the fuse box,, the one that lites up , of course has power,, now keep the test lite where it is at, turn the key off , test lite should turn off as well , if it still stays on you do not want that connection cause it has power all the time and if you connect something to it , it will stay on and drain the battery ..
