Neal, did you leave it with this setup? The 5amp in the one with nothing and the 3amp in the one with the wire? Or did you end up getting a 2amp fuse?

Also, I just have a 3amp fuse in the slot with the wire, is that ok?

Thanks guys!

Wow! i remember this thread! :p


Yes, i left it at that setup, it was perfect. I even left the same setup and swaped it into my C55. I never used a 2amp fuse. Just the 5 and 3. If you mean that you need only 1 fuse, well accrding to what everyone else told me, you need 2.

I am still trying to figure it out, my audi was a joke to install.

The hardwire cable that came with the V1, I just plug that into #7 and ground the ground cable and Im good?

Thanks

Great write up and pics @ N-4speed. Thanks to you I ordered up the part you suggest and was able to knock this out in a few minutes! A good hardwire solution has been bugging me for some time, finally put that one to rest.
