Hey guys, Im gonna be installing a Z1 this week along with Bluetooth and a PS2.

 

Ive never put a game system in a car before and my question is how do I go about powering it?? One of those ciggarette lighter adaptors?? Or do I cut the plug off and tap into a 12V constant???

 

THANKS in advance!!!! :D

Wait more than 3 hours next time. A power invertor or a dc-dc convertor would work.

...I was 3min away from 3 hrs...cut me some slack aye? lol. Im just anxious because I have the dash all torn apart and I want to get everything squared away soon.

So is what you are talking about the things that go into the ciggarette lighter? Im not familiar with those... Id just like the cleanest install. IE: no plugs hangin out the ciggarette lighters..

Some do, though the better and more powerful ones require a drop from the battery the same way an amp does.
