  • All those dashboard blanks!

    So what can I fill all those blanks on the dashboard/console with? Can I tap into the fag lighter cable if I add some USB sockets? Any other bright ideas?

    Electric window switches
    Nokia hands free controller
    Passat hazard switch
    Aux input

    That's mine filled up then... [emoji106]

        I have only used one. For my stereo because it's supplied from the leasure battery and nothing to do with the ignition.

              Took it from the radio feed. Tapped in after the inline fuse.

                      Thread resurrection time.
                      Got a couple of USB switches for general charging stuff. How about tapping into fag lighter power as I assume that its meant to take some oomph if lighting fags?
                      All I use it for is Sat Nav power

                      Radio has no wiring diagram but then neither does anything I have telling me which is + or - etc . Haynes is useless. Can happily play with multi meter etc but wondered if anyone had any proven ideas.
                      Would an inline fuse be needed?

                      What rating fuse would be best?
