Blackdog92 2,047 Posted January 31, 2016 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) All i did with mine was cut off the adapter for the cigarette lighter and the female end that plugs into the battery and soldered the two wires together. Its really easy i have no idea about electrics so if i can do it i think a toddler can lol. Not a proffesional job but it works grand. Edited January 31, 2016 by Blackdog92 1 Quote Link to post
