Ok so my car didnt have a lighter in it and i need one for a sat nav and phone charger.
I have no idea how to fit it. The hole where one should be had no wires behind it and im a complete idiot when it comes to stuff like that.
Anyone help me out on what i need to do in laymans terms
you could buy one of
these run some 12v wire from the battery with
an inline fuse
if you want it to work only when ignition is on, run a good piece of thick wire from aux on ignition to live on cig lighter fit a in line fuse, and earth from cig lighter to a good earth on car.
I say thick wire, because if you use thin wire, and in future sell car and next owner uses a cig lighter there is risk of a fire.
I have the correct wire if you want it. Free of course
you could buy one of
theseThats what ive got mate
Willo ive got some thickish wire already ill give it a go.
If i dont post again ive blew myself up haha
if you want a hand gis a shout.
Did it have a ciggy lighter at one point? If theres an existing hole for a ciggy lighter, the wire should be just behind the panel, unless they removed the whole wire back to the fuse panel (unlikely). I would check the fuse panel and see which one is for the ciggy lighter and run the wire from there.
Nope there is a hole blanked off for one. Dosent appear to be any wires there though
go to poundland and buy a multi outlet unit and then run direct to battery with an inline fuse in it that way you have phone charger/satnav/ipod/mp3 player and even better halfs phone charger lol see pic
Look in the boot the might be one there?? Or the connection for one, that's where I found mine
lol
