On a 74, what fuse would you run your hot lead from to power a stereo? Or would it be better to set up a dedicated, fused/switched lead directly from the battery?
My worry is when I add my stereo and an amp, I will be overtaxing the old system. Ideas? |

I ran a line from the batteries directly to the HU and put a couple fuses down the line. I also wired both the switched and constant to a constant because my car is with electronic ignition and i am scared as hell to leave the key in the on position. I listen to music a lot with the car off. Amps need to run direct to the battery.
