Hey, I have recently purchased some more screens for my car, and decided I need them wiring properly and want them to come on with my ignition.
I chopped the ends of the fag lighter and extended the wiring to a ground distribution block and a fused positive distribution block.
Now have plugged all screens into the blocks, I also have a fag lighter 4into 1 which i chopped the ends of and am going to use to plug dvd player intoo.
Before i reconnect the battery...
do you think this is all oK?
any major problems you can see?
the distrbution blocks are in glovebox,
the ground wire, i was thiknin i could maybe run one straight from battery or use fag ligter one
what u reckon?
thanks

Make sure your fuse will be a high enough amperage to run all of them

ey a reply
which fuse buddy?
on the distribution block i can choose what fuses to put in each bit, what amp u reckon?
was more worried about wether the fag lighter can handle it all, even if it is all low voltage things.
