Our fuse boxes are the same as in the 911's, so there is an empty slot in row D that's for the 911's rear windows. I just plugged the extender in there and put a 7.5 amp fuse on the top slot on the extender. Turn the key and WOOT I don't have to worry about charging my iPod before taking the Box for a spin.
It took about an hour to do, most of the time was used to find a good spot for the extender. Then I kept putting the actual fuse in the bottom slot when it needs to be on the top.  |
sounds like its working great and hopefully you have no alternator whine. but wouldn't it have been easier to splice into the power that goes into the headunit? pin 8 is a ground. pin 5 is switched 12v +. of course i haven't tried this yet, but i am planning on it.
