back with another quick question!
im planning on installing my heated seat elements this/next weekend as soon as my seat covers get delivered and want to know which is the easiest (skilled but im lazy lol) location for a 12v + ACCESSORY wire to power the seats? i was told that i can probably use the cig lighter but im pretty sure that is a constant even tho theres no power when the key is removed (i dont want my battery dead in the morning!) wire colour+location or a pic would be a great help. -------------------- ![]() "whoever said progress was a slow process... was probably talking about me" |

Cig lighter is fine to use. When you shut the car off it turns off.
