it seems that P MOSFET idea will not be practical, everyday i'm changing one as it get damaged and get heated too much
i think relay will be a better idea
Relay wont trigger at 0v unfortunately, else I would just use one myself. For me only a mosfet works in this situation. Mine is 53A, so it should surely handle a lot of heat. Plus I bolted mine to the bracket of the relay so it becomes its heatsink.

Hello! I have a situation, I have to have my car compliant by Tuesday and I only have tonight and tomorrow to work on this project. So if I could get some quick help in the most basic way that would be fantastic! I have a situation similar to this thread...

Everything is in the other post I said. I didn't use any resistors. It's the same as what that other guy drew for me on my diagram thing.

Ok thanks i nearly got all the components
Have only one doubt
In the picture attached now 3 pins marked by red
What will be connected to these pins ?
The pin marked in green, this will be the new 12 volt output ?
The red, well one is the voltage for what you want powered and one is the source of that power. The middle one is not used. So you're going in between an existing power line and interrupting it with the relay. Relay is what switches between on and off. MOSFET tells the relay to switch when it's 0v.
so i can use
87 for the device i want it to be powered
87A not used
30 continuous 12 volt supply
86 is connected to MOSFET drain pin
85 is connected to 86 through a diode and then to ground
