Where r the wires 4 the fag lighter?
Do they just need a positive feed and earthin?
There was a lighter in a corsa in the scrappies on saturday so do i just need the actual lighter unit itself or do i need some wires?

The adapter should have a fuse in it so open it up and use that, connect the positive to the battery or to a 12v live wire and earth it to the cars body it all goes back to the battery anyway.

I patched my Snooper (well it aint a snooper but same thing) into the back of the fag lighter. You should have the wires there still so patch in.

If you do wire it direct to the battery you will be best to fit a fuse in the circuit too.

You'll have to figure out what fuse a snooper needs but it won't be a big one.

I have a snooper that has a cigarette lighter adaptor on it. My car doesnt have a fag lighter so would it be possible to wire it directly to the battery.
If I just cut the adaptor off the end where do I put the wire, just to the positive or will it need going to the neg as well. If it needs wiring to 2 places will the wire be split inside.

Also would you recommend puttin an in-line fuse in it and if so what rating should I put in?
