Click to expand...

yeah it is pretty easy...just cut the cigarette lighter adapter off the end of the wire, and strip the 2 wires, connect one to postitive and one to negative.

you could also wire to a switch if you want or go searching for a wire that only has power when the car is running. but the basics of it are easy
