Default power for guages and stereo??

My mate needs help fing an ignition live for his stereo and new dials mounted in the heater vents. He has no wiring that can be used as the previous stereo was totally cut out from the loom and he wants to find a safe power feed for his new one.

Anybody help??

Ah crap , its a sapphire RS Cosworth, F-reg 1989. He totally cant find an ign live as a butcher must have owned it last, certainly not an auto electrician
