Were is the best place i can hard wire into a 12 volt source on a 97 3.0?

 

what are you trying to do?

just tap into the battery but make sure you have a fuse replay so that you dont blow whatever you running on the positive lead

like fr my neons in the inside of my car i run a 20 amp fuse, but there is a short right now and i can figure it out

 

well a couple of things. I have an acura embelem that lights up blue that i want to run through my parking lights and i also want to hook a small flashing neon tube through hardwiring instead of it going through my cigarette adapter. i would like to have a toggle switch for this becaus i am thinking about getting some more.

 

all depends on what you are trying to do if running a amp ect ill tap directly with a inline fuse if it is a smaller amperage device scanner dvd player ect you could tap into a aux fuse in the fuse box or run a seprate fuse box many different options on what you can do.

 

i had that same light up acura emblem i think and i had it run off my brake lamp and it stayed a solid red, no change when braking but i dont hink you need a fuse for that, its small but the neons i would PM me or aol im me @ jgiguere17 and i can show you some pics or explain it osme more if you need me too

 

i will pm you later...but the neons are for inside my car and are pretty small (15") and i currently only have one but would i run the wires through my fuse box...and if so how would i go about doing that. (I also have some pics of the acura emblem that i will try to get on here later)

 

If you don't have a fog light installed, you could get a light tester, open the fuse box and test which one will give you power when you turn on your headlights. once you find that, get connectors and hook up the power from there along with fuse and switch. So you only get power to neons when your headlights are on, and the switch will let u turn it off and on whenever u want.

 

okay...what kind of connectors and where could i get them at. i would like to hook up the emblem to my lights and the neons to source that would be able to turn anytime i would like to through a toggle switch

 

Tap into wires at the ignition harness. That will be behind your steering wheel. These wires will be bigger than the rest of the wires down there. There will be a 12v constant and 12v ignition. Those are the only ones you need. You will need a wire tester to figure out which one to tap into. Make sure that you fuse any connection that you make!! 20 amp for a constant power source

 

You would just use those female connectors, u could buy them anywhere
