I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE I DO THINGS RIGHT.. I HEAR I CAN POWER THAT TO MY BATTERY.. SO DO I JUST CUT THE LIGHTER ADAPTER END AND USE THOSE WIRES? AND CAN I USE THE POWER WIRE THAT RUNS FROM BEHIND HEADUNIT THAT RUNS TO THE BATTERY THAT POWERS THE AMP? SAME ISSUE WITH THE DVD PLAYER.. ALL I GOT WITH THE DVD PLAYER IS 3 RCA CORDS AND AN AC/DC ADAPTER THAT PLUGS INTO THE BACK.. HAS A FUSE BOX ON IT.. DOESNT HAVE LIGHTER ADAPTER.. WHERE CAN I CONNECT THOSE WIRES? THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE HELP.. HEIDI |

Silver Member Username: DkchillinVermont Post Number: 337 Registered: Mar-05 | Just want to back up what Ty suggested. Run a new power wire from the battery (don't splice into any wires you have already run) to a switch, and then from the switch to your inverter and then ground the inverter. |

No cutting no nothing. All you have to do is attach it to a screw in your distribution block. and ground it near where you install it. It also has a remote turn on wire. It's perfect for powering everything you mentionned you want to power. Anything else? |
