Radio and/or 12v Accessory Outlet add?

Hello all,

Is anyone added a radio or a accessory plug like a lighter or USB 12 V outlet to their car? If so what has to happen?

I mean I know our cars are full of batteries all linked together but did you add a separate battery or just feed off of one of them?

Many men have tried …
Tried and failed?
Tried and died.

Check the owners manual, iirc, it shows an extra fuse for aux/stereo. Then you just need to trace the wires. The wiring prints show aux/stereo wiring, again, you just need to find it.

What year is yours? On my 2000 there is a taped back set of wires on the RH side when you remove the top of the dashboard. I can’t recall the wiring colors but they were the only wires with male and female spade terminals that were not connected to anything. They are intended for 12V accessories.

why fail? Meaning many could not add anything? Or that when they did it blew up something else? or?
