To get a 12 volt wire run to the back of your 2002 Ford E-250 you will need to run a length of 10 gauge wire like part # 10-1-1 (sold by the foot), from the positive post of the vehicle battery back to the rear of the vehicle.

When routing the wire you will want to be careful of any pinch points or hot exhaust pipes that would damage the wire.
