Default Switched power

Doing an aftermarket sub/amp install. I am having trouble finding a switched power source at the back of the car.. the lighter plug looking thing is powered full time. Any ideas?

On my 14 the Aux Outlet #23 I believe is a switched 12v fuse.

There are several points in the rear fusebox where you can tap switched power

Fuse 37 in the rear is switched power on my 17. Very easy access as well.
