Default Ashtray switch

Bout to install a nitrous outlet ashtray switch panel, so I have a couple questions, how are you guys fishing the wires under the carpet? Or are you pulling everything out instead? Were are you guys getting power from?

we usually get power from the fuse panel where it says IGN. You can pull the kick panels off and pull the carpet back to get your wires under the carpet or you can run it up on the inner support frame of the dash over to the fuse panel. If you have any questions give us a call at 254-848-4300

A coat hanger wire works good to pull the wire, I take my wires and tape them to the coat hanger and just slowly push thru. Ceiling wire (used for drop ceilings) works best, it can be cut to length and hard enough not to bend easy when pushing.

I will be purchasing a nitrous outlet kit within the next couple weeks and will also likely run the nitrous outlet ashtray switch again. So will the power from the IGN support the power for the bottle heater and the power for solenoids as well?

I'm not sure if I would, The heater pulls a lot of amps as do the solenoids for them to share the same power lead. I would def use relays for both, maybe then they could share the same power lead.

We recommend using relays for the system and bottle heater.
