Has anyone installed a line lock on their C3? I'm trying to figure out the best place to get the positive wire 12 volts from.

It has to be available only after the ignition is on. The brake line tubing install is all set. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

Should have a couple of empty terminals in the fusebox labeled "Ign". If all of the "Ign" terminals are in use for other things(stereo, alarm, etc), you can still tie into those terminals depending on what else they are powering. Be sure to install an in-line fuse going to the line-lock solenoid.
