New stereo installation on a '75

[smither]

I'm putting in a new stereo that has a clock and presets. In order to store these, the stereo needs a 12V feed that is always on. Since the old one didn't have this, all I have readily available is a 12V that is controlled by the ingition. Any ideas where I can easily tap into a constant 12V wire?

Thanks!

I used the cigarette lighter wire, it's heavy gage and is close to the radio and always hot.

So I ran a new power wire straight from the batt for a number of uses, with an inline fuse at the battery.
