i have bought an fm modulator for the screen in my car, it requires wiring to the battery positive and neg terminals, if i use a cig lighter adaptor and wire it to that, so i can plug it in to the cig lighter will it work?
Saves wiring it to battery. thanks in advance

hummm yes but it will clutter everything up

just take the red wire, pop an inline fuse on it at least 18 inches from battery, then connect to red terminal on battery.

take the black wire and earth it near to where the modulator is

i take it it has a switch on to power it ?
