Quick wiring question...need to power a DVD Player with constant 12v for memory position

Currently, I have a dvd player hooked up to my RNS-E and is being powered by the cigarette adapter that it came with (for DVD power). It also came with the hard wire solution as well. With the cig adapter, there is no position memory in the player so movies start over from the beginning all the time.
The hard wire for the player calls for ground, switched 12v and constant 12v. I can do the ground and switched no problem but am questioning the constant 12v. I assume there is a pin on the RNS-E harness that is a constant 12v for the unit itself so it can be used when the car is off. I'm planning to tap into this but the diagram for the 'D' block pins doesn't specifically say 12v constant. Does anyone know which pin I need to tap into for 12v constant?
I assume tapping into this 12v constant wire won't kill the battery by keeping the memory in the DVD player while the car is off...
Thanks!
