You can pick up hot and ground from the center console the extra wires the factory has left for just this reason.

They are by the hatch release botton (center console).

Pete, the extra wires I don't think started until 91.

Pete,

I'm using those connections for my WB. If you're taking the rpm signal at the
diag connector I can pull 12v switched and ground from there and just run it as a harness to the interior.

Dom, my WB has cigarette lighter cord for powering the WB.

Pete,

I believe the LM-2 was built to work that way. The ZT-2 isn't. In fact, the instructions specifically state not to use the cigarette lighter for power.
When I first got mine I did use the lighter and it worked fine. I also had TPS output being logged by the ZT-2. It worked fine and then the car started running erratically with TPS signal being interfered with by WB. Once I hooked it up to switched power and used ECM ground the problem went away.
