Martin</TD></TR></TABLE>What better info do you need? If all you want to know is how to wire the converter,[hard wire] then you should have asked, [ how do I hard wire the converter] and I would have told you to, cut off the lighter plug, ground the ground wire under the drivers kick panel at one of the OEM grounds, add the right size fuse, [inline] to the pos. wire of the power converter and plug it into one of the power freepins on the the fusebox, there are at least 3, one is the parklights, one is constant power, and one is 2nd ign., it only has power when ign. is on, there is almost always a 4th one acc., it has power when ign. is on one acc., and ign. 94

Fuse box? That's a terrible spot, you are just asking for an electrical fire.
