I wired my elec pump into the rear window defroster power source. It is a 25 amp circuit. The pump runs whenever the car is turned on. The defrost switch does not affect the pump. I added a toggle and in line fuse back in the tail gate too so I can turn it off if desired.

I have double fuel lines, one is a bypass, so any extra fuel pressure will loop back around and not "force" the lift pump. My elec pump set up only moves fuel to the inline filter and then back around to the tank. That way the lift pump is only "lifting" fuel about 1 foot instead of 10+ feet.
