Question GPS tracker placement - advice needed

I need to place a GPS tracker on the accessory circuit. Does this circuit extend to the rear hatch area? Thanks...

I am thinking that the radio ant. motor has a constant switched (acc) power. You might check that out. Or you could also use the fuel pump power wire because when the car is running the pump is running.

BE careful.....when I tried installing my Dual XGPS150 to run with Harry's lap timer in my 79 racer....it DIDN'T work under the factory windshield....

Moved to the rear on the cage with plexiglass windows...works great....

The power antenna idea sounds promising. My 1980 current flow diagram shows a red wire feeding the antenna motor from V5. Does anyone know where this routes from?

Thanks...
