Default 1996 850 Hardwiring Question

Hi Everyone,
I'm new here.
I have a 1996 850, I am an EMT and I want to hardwire a flashing emergency light that currently uses a cigar plug. I was wondering if there is a location in the car where there is an easily accessible 12 volt power source that I could use.

Thanks in advance,
Michael

Fuse box is under the hood but they run wiring loom through the firewall that you could use.

If you need help locating it let me know.
I used it to run my Amp. wiring and Air/Fuel ratio guages on my car.

I found the fuse box, but I haven't had time to look closely at it. I might need some help as to how and where I should run the wires.
