zimon14 Posted November 11, 2014 Author Posted November 11, 2014 Just need a 12V supply the screen itself only pulls just over 0.5A hence why I was looking to come of the cigarette lighter, I'm taking the HU out as this is where the screen is going. Quote
ZEUS Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 I took power from the back of the cigarette socket to run my sat nav Quote
EvansJD2112 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 If you're taking HU out, why not take the feed from the HU power loom? Quote
