Hi, I am going to add headrest monitors, a video splitter and my sat radio, I want to hardwire the power for all of these, what is the best way to do this?, is there a wire I can add a splice to?, what is the best way to wire power to these things?
you should use that for the power to switch on/off a relay. That 12v wire in the armrest is not going to run enough juice to power multiple monitors.Can I splice into the 12v acc wire, the one located in the armrest??

Not trying to be an asshole, but with the beginner nature of the questions that you are asking, you are going to be better off having a friend that knows what they are doing help you, or take it to a shop. You should watch someone who knows what they are doing, so that in the future you can do it. The last thing that you want to do is royally screw up a perfectly good car, which you could do if you make some bad electrical wiring decisions...Aight thanks!
So basically the montiors would be on the whole time and the relay makes them go on/off with the cars power so not to drain the battery. Sorry I know nothing about electrical so I need it REAL nice and clear so I don't fry something

I'm going to second the suggestion that you find someone competent in electrical wiring to do this for you. It's no insult meant to you but you simply do not understand what's involved and you're going to be heading for disaster if you attempt this without experienced help. trust me, if you don't even understand the theory of a simple relay and how to wire it into a circuit you're going to be lost with the project you've decided to undertake.Hi, my monitors have the black and red wire running to a black box, is this the relay?
Also, can I run them to a add-in fuse in the car's fuse box? [/b]
