Default Need Info on Fuse Panel

Looking to add power windows to my truck, and I am going to use a 'fuse tap' on the fuse panel. Is there any fuse that is hot only when the ignition is on/ACC, like the radio? I would like to use a heavier circuit than the radio circuit.

I also need one for the auto locks I am installing also , but this one would have to be hot all the time, any hints, suggestions? I only have the fuse panel cover, no manual.

Thanks in advance!

I think I can do even better for you,

Here's a full walkthrough, including wiring for the windows: http://www.a1electric.com/f150.htm

Here's some wire identification, should help you find somewhere to tap for the locks: http://www.the12volt.com/installbay/...etail/873.html

Thanks for the DATA!
I am using a uni-kit, so I don't have to mess with the inside of the door too much thankfully.
You have been quite a help Gator88!

Any chance the wiring may be there even though it never had electrics, or were there different wiring harnesses for the trucks?
Just a thought, going to play with it this weekend...

Highly unlikely if you've got an XL.
