I also took the black panel off surrounding the glove box, not difficult, then the wires are in a shiny black plastic surround.

Its a lot easier with this panel removed, go for it, if i can do it anyone can.

from memory the accessory lead i used goes into standby mode when the bike is at tickover, a tad annoying if your satnav is attached to it, cant remember which lead it was yho, i used a feed from my side lights in the end

Viper, not heard of that before. I've never experienced any loss of power in the sat nav, or autocom etc whilst at traffic lights etc.

yeh, I initially wired my satnav into the same feed as the heated grips, this circuit is a power saving circuit and cuts out when the bike is at tickover, it has caught a few out in the past , check this thread

Use the accessory/aux power supply as fitted to the bike and power will only cease when the bikes ignition is switched off
