The fuse there is 15amp and I believe the dash pulls less than an amp. I guess my question is, is this an appropriate spot to wire the power and ground to? Looks like the wires coming from the display harness is small like 18gauge. Would that be fine hooking up to the wires for the 12v port? Not a fan of tap a fuse since I can't use the fuse box cover nor do I want to tap a line. Since I don't use the 12v in the glovebox, I would rather route it over there and use deutsch connectors for the connection.

I should be fine right?

Try one of these at the fuse block inside the passenger compartment.
