Trying to locate 12v power from Cigarette lighter

Hi,

I found a post from one of the member "M3Armand" about getting power from 12v Cigarette lighter and hope you do not mind stealing your picture ^,^. Does anyone know that the white connector (picture shown) is the connection for cigarette lighter? If that is the case, i just need to find the "hot" wire from one of the three wires. I am tying to hardwire "ACC" 12v power and this way will not drain power when I shut off the car.

Also, I was wondering if Cigarette lighter would be good clean and safe for ACC 12v power? Or using Fuse tap like "Add a circuit" to one of the existing fuse from fuse box for getting ACC 12v power better?

Thanks.
