Can i use a regular garmin power cable as opposed to the bare wire cord? I would just strip the basic one (it's cheaper). what fuses do i use, where does it connect to the fuse box, and will i have to worry about searges damaging the unit?

Ok so you're asking if you can just take an existing Garmin power cable say - this
or this
and clip the end off.
If the red and black wires are there and you can put a fast acting 2 amp fuse in then I don't see why not. The fuse will protect from any surges but if you are asking if you can
expect surges from the tap-a-circuit in the fuse panel than I would have to say no. The vehicles voltage regulator will maintain nominal voltage. If you do get a surge you have other issues not normally present.
