Just wondering if anyone has tried to or figured out a way to modify the console 12V to constant hot?

I need a way to power my supplemental braking system for the bronco when towing behind my motorhome. Jeeps console 12v was an “always hot” source and just “assumed” that the same would hold true here. Before I order and install a battery direct 12v I wanted to see if anyone had a more simple trick or suggestion?

Did you get an answer to this? I was under the impression it was already a constant hot

Your requested solution would be best but: I ran a hot from the battery and put an outlet on the kick panel, works well. Better might be to tap into a constant hot in the interior fuse panel, I've heard rumors of fuse 29, but IDK.
