    How would i go about wiring everything in? What should i use as my main power source? I already have a rocker switch and some wire.

    Thanks!!
    Go to the ignition wires off the key cyinder harness, you will have to drop the dash panel below steering column to gain access. There will be a bunch of thicker size wires, the one that is blue with yellow stripe is constant 12V and the black with white stripe is 12V when key is on, simply open these wires to tap into them or use splice connectors, then if you want connect your toggle switch in between.

    You can connect inline fuses if you wish, though I never have. Like this.



    For your radar detector, you either need to find a hard-wire kit online


    or use your 12v outlet adapter with one of these

    Notice the regular cigarette lighter socket fits into an adapter with 2 wires coming out of it.

    Either way you go you will be left with 2 wires, on will obviously be ground and the other can be direct 12v or ignition switch 12v or with a switch in between, its up to you.

    Matt... I was waiting for that...

    I haven't officially lowered it. I trimmed some excess front spring, and the rear made itself low

    No need to tell me... I HATE this phone for the lack of a decent camera. I'm hoping to get the HTC Infuse 4G sometime next month, if all goes well.


    Thanks Greg!
