I am running a new relay located behind the plastic cover that houses the key cam that pops off the seat and I need a ignition switched wire in this location to solder to, where best to tie in?

You should get a schematic for the bike, at the back of the shop manual.  Meanwhile, behind the rt cover you will see two wires bundled together with bullet connectors, green, and LtGr/red.  Those are the accy terminal, fused at 5amp, G is ground, the other hot.  Use it as a trigger for a relay.

Thanks,  I have the full Honda shop manual for the 1500 (need one for the 1800c) I just knew many here could answer without thought.   cooldude

No.  I had to get out the shop manual and look it up. Silly me.

John, adding a Show Chrome Contour Lightbar to the 2003, the relay and wire/toggle are all neatly tucked in and zip tied in place, everything soldered and I just needed the ignition low current hot to the relay.
