I sort of hardwired wired my portable GPS into the cable leading to the accessory outlet on my 00 LS, details here: http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...si&img=1349
However, if I had known about "add-a-curcuit" connectors (sometimes called piggy-back fuses), I would definitely have used one instead. They plug into the under-dash fuse box and are perfect for powering accessories -- available on-line or at auto parts stores. Photo attached.
Thank you for your reply. Piggy-back fuses should be a good option but if you plug the fuse with 2 wires how to determine + (positive) and - (negative) ends or how to connect them to the radio ? Thank you!
