could someone tell me where the easiest accesory wire to get to is?? thank you much.

 

What do you want to hook up? Depending on how much current you need, you could tap into the fuse on the driver's side labled "cig/aux" or the "pwr drop" fuse on the passenger's side. Use a multimeter to make sure the pwr drop fuse is switched because I don't remember 100%.

 

im hooking up a little LED with a fuse rating of 3 AMP
how do you tap in to a fuse?? i have never done that before, it kinda has to be explained thuroughly because i have no idea at all.

 

Ran a wire out of my radio fuse, and to a switch box with an inline fuse. Whole inside of the car is lit up on that

 

thanks all!!

 

thats nothin, you could probly hook it up to a 9 volt battery and it last forever. jk

yeah i wouldnt bother to tap into a fuse, you can run that off any power line thats closest to where you need.

 

Ya tapping into fuses is amature and can be an expensive mistake if done incorrectly. the best thing you can do because little accessories are like good drugs once you do a little you'll want more. run a 10 gauge wire from the under hood fuse box off the stud located just to the left of it. put a 30-40amp inline fuse close to that stud and run it into the car, you can do this pretty easily. i ran a 4 gauge the size of your pinky finger with no issues. you could get fancy and run the acc power to a relay and it would only come on if the key was also. or just put a toggle switch on all the added items.

 

how can i mess things up by tapping into a fuse??

 

man i'm a licenced mechanic you wouldn't believe the crap i've seen people do, and if you run off the wrong fuse such as the bcm you could fry a $600 part how does that sound?

 

You can also burn up the wiring before the fuse if you're trying to get too much current from it. But 3 amps should be fine, especially just from the cig lighter fuse. Getting your power from the fuse box is just as safe as tapping into an exsting wire anywhere else.

You can get a spade crimp connector, connect it to the end of your wire, and just insert it into the positive side of the fuse slot along with the existing fuse if you want to go super simple. This might be frowned upon by some, but with just a couple LEDs it's fine. Then you just find your own ground somewhere.

A better way would be to find an add-a-circuit that uses mini-ATC fuses (which is what your car uses). This plugs into your factory fuse slots just like a fuse would and has two fuses; one for the factory circuit, and one for the positive wire it gives you for your accessory. I honestly don't know if these are available with mini-ATC fuses though, I've only seen ATC. Again, you'll need your own ground.
