How would i go about wiring two cigarette lighters into my car. I plan on getting a pivot shift light, so i want a second cigarette lighter that i can put behind or on the side of the center console area. Or is there a way to rewire the shift light?

 

Just cut the cig lighter attachment off the shift light. Find a free 12V switched and wire it up to that.

 

Where are the 12v switches? Im sorry i dont know anything about this stuff

 

anyone?

HAHA

12v switched means 12 volts of switched power. Meaning it's turned on and off by the ignition. If you are lost already I'd suggest something like this:

Has the best prices on the pivot shift lamps.

 

why not just splice into a 12v power source somwhere in your dash? like possibly your radio. I did that in my old integ. and I plan to do that with a pivot shift light in my civic.

 

i used to have shiftlight wired up correctly (i thought it was)... until my shiftlight got stolen .

the problem is, he doesn't know where there are other sources of 12v in his car.

thanks to team-integra.net... this will SURELY help you out:

Here is a spot to grab Constant Power, Accesory Power, or Parking Light power in your 94-97 Integra. The image is looking at the fusebox under the steering column

Explanations:
• Constant Power: Always shows 12v regardless of Key position
• Ignition: Shows 12v with key only in the "ON" position
• Flashing Lights: Shows 12v with parking lights on
• Accesory: Shows 12v with key in "ACC" or "ON"

To connect to one of these slots, use a .250" inch female spade connector
-------------------------------------------------

if you still havent figured it out... if you want your shift light to work well. my recommendation is to hack away at the cigarette connectors and find the positive end and connect it to the mentioned .250" inch female spade connector and connect the other end to the IGNITION slot. connect the negative end of the wire to a negative source. i recommend finding a spot in your car that is metal and connected your car's chassy...a bolt perhaps (when i had my shiftlight, i located the deadpedal bolt and it worked great)? well good luck!
