Hardwiring a V1

Avus Blur · Aug 24th, 2006, 12:50 PM

I just ordered another wiring kit so I could hard wire my V1 into the Pathfinder without having to mess with the cigarette lighter anymore.

Well anyways, I need to find a positive and negative wire. I was gonna use the wires for the dome light or sunroof, since they only have juice when the car is on and that is what I did on my M3.

Does anybody know offhand what the colors are for the positive and negative wires or a website where I could obtain said information?

Thanks

Nobody had done this before?

What's a V1?

Go to the fuse panel, run a wire from there. Ground to any bare metal on the body. Never wired anything before?

Valentine radar detector.

Yeah I have wired stuff before. I was just hoping somebody new what color the positive wires are for the moon roof were.

Running wires all the way from the fuse panel would be a unnecessary and way to much work.

Sorry for asking.
