Y-splitter for glovebox cigarette socket?
Hi,
I've added some cheapo aftermarket footwell LEDs that uses the 12v cigarette socket under the glovebox. I've hidden the controller etc. under the glovebox cover, but to really get the stealthy look I want to get rid of that power connector that goes to the led, and wired it directly to the 12v using a splitter without having to touch the fusebox (and still be able to use the socket): Does anyone know where I can find a Y-splitter for that socket? |

Use one of these to connect the wire to the LED to the wire that goes to the outlet:

If you don’t want to physically tap into the wires you can make a patch cable. Those connectors for the 12v outlet are pretty generic and easily available.
Here’s some that are solder on which I think are the correct size. I think you can also find ones with crimp on pins. Edit: see below for correct link Last edited by SuperLomi; 10-24-2021 at 03:33 PM.. |

Sorry I just looked at that again. That’s not the connector you need. Thats a single pin, you need 2 pin. I pulled that from my purchase history. Forgot I went with single pin.
You need something Like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YXVBP4F...ing=UTF8&psc=1 Last edited by SuperLomi; 10-24-2021 at 04:47 PM.. |
