I'd wire it directly to the battery. Turning it on and off with the car requires some tinkering if you take the direct battery route. You could wire a relay in place of the switch on the inverter and connect the relay to a switched power source. After some testing, I discovered that the power going through the switch on my inverter was about 12.5V RMS. So I just took out the switch and ran a switch 12V line directly to it. Works perfectly.
