I'd run a fused wire directly from the battery through the firewall. Less possibility of electrical noise, plus 99% of new radios use the wire hooked up to the ignition only to turn them on (via a relay). The main power is drawn from the "always on" connection, and it can be 10-15 amps. The interior lighting circuit can't really support that kind of current.
