Glove Box Light Wire Question?

On My 69 C10 Can I Tie The Glove Box Light Wire ( Orange )
To The Same Circuit As The Cigarette Lighter Wire?

Either circuit would work as both are always hot, un-switched by ignition.

Re: Glove Box Light Wire Question?

Interior light circuit is also unswitched by ignition. It will only be switched hot when a door is open or the dome light is turned on at light switch, this circuit is switched to ground. The others mentioned may be as well. Been a while so I would have to check diagram.
Edit- Really need to check diagram. Courtesy/interior lights the same. They are dimmable at light switch.
Believe there may be a switched ignition terminal at fuse cluster just use that if you do not want it work with ignition off.
