Default Ok, Which Wire is it?

I'm wiring a Sirius radio in my 2006 H3.

I know that the Orange on the back of the factory radio harness is battery (always on I believe) and the black/white is ground ...

Which wire is it that stays "hot" when you turn the key off, and then turns itself off when you open the door ? (Thats the obvious one to hook the sat. radio up to)

Thanks in advance.

David

I dont mind moving (5 times now in 5 years) ... What I really miss this time is no garage while in between houses and my tools (ALL 3 chests of them) are all stored.

I've got a multi-screwdriver and a 5.99 socket set to deal with

Nope ... I knew that much (I found that info posted somewhere earlier) But thanks for sure !

I'd like to know which power wire in the harness stays powered up when the key is turned off and taken out, but turns off when the door is opened.

Just need to figure out that one wire

Would a door wiring diagram work??? The windows still work after the key is off til the door is opened? If you have MS word, I can point you to that.
