i have seen people wiring up to the accessories on power wire near the glovebox.

Question is... does this also come if you did not get the aux switches minus the aux connectors? Or is the accessory on power line completely absent?

Do I need to wire directly to battery for power?

For an expert opinion, I recommend the following resource: http://www.k0bg.com/wiring.html

It's targeted at amateur (HAM) radio operators, but the principles apply in CB (which in the US is just a low-power AM service in the 11 meter range).

Because the power levels are lower, you're unlikely to run into circuit overload problems, but there are still RFI considerations.

I have Rubicon JL 2018 without AUX switches block and loose power wires mentioned in other CB radio threads.
So, where else I can get power for my Uniden PRO520XL CB radio?
