Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Power via fuse box

    Im trying to wire in my rear foglight and instead of getting power for the relay directly from the battery, i heard that there are a few places on the fuse box under the driver side kick panel that you can get power from. I was also contemplating running the power wires for my security system from there as well instead of from the battery for a little extra security. Does anyone have anymore info on this and pictures or diagrams as well?

    alarm, tag the ignition harness. More secure.

    As for the foglights, there are ports on the fusebox you can tag with a spade connector. I forgot which one, use a test light to test it. FYI If you dont know how to use a test light, then you shouldnt even be attempting what you are doing.
    What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

    You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

    Retro!

          Im not sure what you mean by tag the ignition harness. if i really wanted to i could take my multimeter and figure it out but in the interest of not wasting time and not messing anything up, i figured id ask here.

              Tag ignition harness meaning, splice and solder in directy into the line. If you have a security system and its connected into your fuse box, all someone has to do is disconnect it and its disabled. Having it hardwired into the ignition harness will eliminate that flaw.

                  Now is that a fused power source or should an inline fuse be added?

                    Usually I always put an inline fuse.
