power wire locations? This isnt really a nitrous question, but it involves my nitrous kit. I have the microedge,wideband,and various switches for my nitrous kit. I am wondering where everyone gets their power for the wires at. I use to do it in the fuse panel beside the dash, but i looks really ugly and trashy, so i tore it all out and im changing some things.
How do you determine if it can handle the load or not? Right now I have my switches running on the constant from the cig lighter, power in from the alt. wheel well posts. I used a higher gauge wire when connecting to the cig lighter, but can the oringal wires still hold the draw from 3 switches?
The general rule of thumb is pink and orange wires are hot.The best thing you can do is get a meter or test light and find the ignition hot wires, then trace them to the fuse panel to check the amperage of the fuses.

You can also go off the fuse block on the drivers side of the dash where the door shuts and there are several keyed 12v sources there. I also believe that there is an empty slot or two that are 12v keyed that you can use over there as well.
