I've been super busy and kind of abandoned the finishing touches of mine. I used 18 gauge wire throughout. There isn't much of a power draw to worry about needing larger. I tapped power from the radio amplifier like the DIY, just because of location convenience. Don't know if I'm the only one, but this seems to be a bad idea. If the radio is on, there is too much of a voltage draw to run the camera properly. When I get back from my trip, I'm going to power it right from the battery, with a 5amp fuse. This makes sure there's no fluctuation in the voltage or amperage.
