Default CB Radio

I want to install a CB radio in my 2002 neon SE, but don't know where I can safely attach the wires.
I need to get a book for it that'll give me the wiring schmatic, but I still may not know which wires would be best.
Any suggestions? I need a 12v DC hot wire, and a negative.

Run the wire from you're positive to an open fuse (open the door up and snap off piece of plastic on the inner of the dash) n then ground the negative on the chassis next to the fuse box.

Thank you. I didn't think of that. I'll give it a try.

You can also just wire it into the cig lighter, that way you can't leave it on by mistake. Take the keys out and the cig lighter goes dead.

Don't forget, if it is something that needs a more solid connection than an accessory wire, run it to the battery directly and fuse it. And, is there only a 12v lead and a ground lead? There is no turn-on lead (trigger wire)?
