Where do you guys get power from to add all the electrical goodies? I have an aftermarket radio but I just used the stock power. I am going to add power windows and power door locks. I would later like to do something about the rear window fogging up but I haven't looked into it yet.
I got two of these mounted under the dash in my Falcon. One is always hot...the other is switched hot. See http://1bad6t.com/fusebox.html
Painless Performance sells a product called the Circuit Boss that would be a great solution and comes with instructions.
Ya all want to remember that these cars don't have a very large alternator and battery capacity in stock form, so adding any substantial power consuming equipment will get into issues as the amount of current draw builds up. As well as the stock wire capacity the car was equipped with is not all that large from the 70s.
Funny how some of us are on some sort of brain wave connection. I bought one of those yesterday, but it was an Oreiley. I'm gonna wire my fuel pump through it and also get a better alt.
I found that Painless want too much money for their product. The same stuff can be bought pennies on the dollar. Example: The 6 bank relay kit cost $270 at Summit. I got a 5 bank relay from a Caravan in the junkyard for $20...I'm $250 ahead to buy wire, connectors and breakers.
ive goten those also. they are nice they lock toghter so you can add more or remove them as needed. in the junk yard i feel if it fits in my pocket the buck i payed to get in is payment for it. ive felt that the junk yards charge you for not pocket small stuff, not for the part it self.
