sorry for the big picture !!! but if it was hardwired there wudnt be the 12V plug.....i think he just hid the wire and used the plug !!!

lylen

thanks I was trying to figure out how to post up the pictures like that but I couldn't figure it out.

Rafee2k9

true, yea thats what i meant. but you should take advantage of that

lylen

haha. i have no ideas how i can take advantage of that.

splice the larger plug into the back of your outlet and use it for a radar!

or just tap an acc fuse. its too much trouble to go through the center console.

lylen

what's that mean? haha sorry, i'm a car noob. i'm just starting to get into cars.

This is the ghetto way to do it...but this is how my radar detector and jaser jammer are hardwired.

Go to the fuse box on the drivers side to the left of the steering wheel. Its behind the kick panel.

Wire your pos (+) down to the fuse box, and find a fuse that is only active in the 2nd position on the ignition. I forgot what number fuse it is, but the cover has the names of what the fuses do on the inside of it.

(This is the ghetto part)
Wrap the (+) wire around the metal part of the fuse. Put the fuse back in. Then ground the negative wire to a bolt somewhere.

There are actual fuse taps you can buy somewhere, but i have no idea where.

If You do it that way, you risk of "wrapping" the positive wire onto the unfused side of the fuse....

Just use a fuse tap. I believe there are some DIYs on it in the garage

u can get a fuse tap at any auto store....and it was fuse #32 for ignition !!!

If you want to hardwire a radar detector (passport, escort, V1, beltronic), I recommend http://invisicord.com. There is DIY somewhere here on Azine with pictures that show how to tap it into a power cord in the overhead console. This how I have my Escort wired.

No need to even spend that money on the invisicord. For my STI Driver, used a regular four wire telephone cord (black color), cut one end off, used the Green wire as a ground, and the red wire as power. Only need those two wires...

Caiman

Yeah that was it!
And there is another that I wired my laser jammer to...it was closer to the front of the car. Next to the sunroof fuse.
