You are right there, very close. The constant +12VDC goes to the Battery (or similar unswitched power source)
The Ignition wire needs to be run to your fuse box. On the fuse box/panel you will see at least one male spade connector (flat) that says 'IGN'. This connector has +12VDC only with the ignition on.

Thats where it needs to go.
