Same thing here.  I ran the "ground" wire from the aux power source to 
the fuse panel on the firewall and then grounded the "power" wire, 
verified the power reading was the same polarity as on my real car and 
hooked it up.   I think the unit has an inline fuse but I can't remember 
offhand (car's in storage).  I try to unplug the GPS when starting the 
car in case there's some sort of electrical surge but I'm not religious 
about it.   The unit is attached to one of the underdash brackets (also 
the optional ash tray mount maybe?).

Ran all last summer just fine.
