Wiring an Accessory Power Outlet

Wiring an Accessory Power Outlet
This is in the General Forum because it's NOT for a Dodge, but for my tractor.
My brother wants some video (and I'm certain some of you chumps would, as well) of when I get my Allis Chalmers running. Since I don't have a video recorder it occurred to me that I could use my soon-to-arrive HD720p IR Dash Camera . All I need to do is scavenge a power outlet from either the 1997 Dodge or the 1996 Crown Vic that I'm parting.
Anyway, I wasn't sure if I would wire the outlet directly to the battery, if it needs some type of fuse, or --- ?
Some input from an electrical guru would be nice.

OK, but do I wire the outlet straight to the battery? Connect the hot lead to the fuse, then to the positive and the black lead to the frame?
The problem is in bold.
