This method may save some wiring and some work.

1) Tap the antenna cable to get a 'switched' 12V. I think there is a wire in the cable bunch which is switched whether the radio is on or not. Run it thru a 20A relay to switch ...
2) Tap the trunk light for 'constant' 12V and wire it thru the relay.

Bingo. Now you have a switch 12V with a build-in fuse. It should have enough juice to drive the grease pump. This is an alternative anyway.
