After 11 years of 914 ownership I've decided to instal a stereo that I can hear. Yes I know music of the engine, bla bla...
Anyway, I'm no electrician but I was thinking I could take switched on power from the fuse panel and run a power relay (similar to the square one used for hot start) then run a hot from the battery and T off the other side of the relay, one to stereo and one to amp. I'll add fuses on after the T. Does this sound right or should there be 2 relays? what gauge wire should be used for this? this is where the parallel question comes in. Will I be causing problems for something else by stealing power from the hot side of the fuse pannel? |
