well im puttin gauges in my civic and i have to put the 12volt wire in which when i turn my car on it turns my gauges on. to save trouble couldnt i just hook it up to my remote wire on my cd player?

bad,good, or just hook up a switch to avoid the trouble of finding ignition wire and hook up a switch?
