paul_young2 Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Hi , I use a snooper s2 through the cig lighter yesterday it nearly went on fire at the plug,even with a fuse in it.I am going to hard wire it has anyone done this? Thought i would look for power behind clock on dashboard.
dave_morgan Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 My ciggy lighter stopped working a while ago when I was running my tyre pump compressor thingy through it, so I suspect the wiring is a bit sheet behind there. Not had a look yet, but I'm expecting to see a few scorched wires []. Hard wiring is probably a better idea. Just find a reasonbly well fused feed under the dash somewhere.
st3ph3n Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 I wired in a 3 way ciggy socket splitter (and an inline fuse) into the back of mine. I've got the splitter down in the footwell with my Road Angel plugged into it. My idea for installing that was that going on a roadtrip with a phone/pda used for sat nav, Bluetooth GPS receiver etc. etc. that could all be charged conveniently off that if needed. Leaving the main siggy socket free and hidden behind the flat dash panelling where it belongs. Not really been on any serious road trips yet, but alas.
