OK, that's pretty clear about what not to do, but where should I connect my load (amateur radio)? Should I connect to the chassis ground point and directly to the battery + terminal or does the statement "External customer loads must only be connected to the vehicle at the customer battery connection point" mean that there's some other defined point (maybe at a fuse box) where I should connect my leads? I'm planning to put the radio under the rear passenger seat, so connecting to power at the 12V jump terminal under the hood as some have suggested isn't a good option.
