I'm currently in the process of wiring up my powerfolding mirrors and the diagram says to run a wire to a 12v source. So should i be hooking it up to a constant or switched 12v source?

And either way, where should i tap into for it? i prefer it to be right by the underdash fusebox if possible, since that is where all the wiring for it is...

btw: this is for a 92 hatch if that matters

 

switched power is always best, prevent potential problems in the future.

Use one of the option connectors in the fuse box.

 

I just wired my JDM power folding mirrors yesterday without any problems. Get a female spade connector and crimp it to the end of the power wire. I stuck that wire in the last of the 5 slots in the fusebox (the right most). It will be like stock where you need to turn your key to the ACC position for the mirrors to work. However, if you want your mirrors without the key to the ACC position and work anytime, put the connector to the left most of the 5 slots. This way you don't have to splice and solder.

 

alright cool thanks!
