Default Help with ARB locker/compressor wiring

So my axles are going back in shortly and I thought the wiring would be pretty simple. The instructions are asking to tap into my ignition and accessory outlet wiring... I have no idea what I should do here or where I should splice in... has anybody else done this? Thanks.

Do you have a link to the instructions?

Ignition usually means a switched source, which is a circuit that only has power when the key is in the run position. You can use a tap-a-fuse in the TIPM for that. If by accessory outlet plug they mean the cigarette lighter, then if the cig lighter cover has a picture of a battery on it then it is unswitched (always has power). If the cover has a picture of a key on it then it is switched power. Did you mean ignition OR accessory outlet rather than "and"?

Sorry it calls for ignition and dash illumination.

Oh okay then I don't need the instructions.

For ignition, you can use a tap-a-fuse in the TIPM (see link) or tap a switched cig lighter.
