12V AC under the hood?

[Baby Face]

Trying to wire up some running lights, where would i be able to find a 12V source to tap into that comes on with ignition, under the bonnet?
this is for the s2000 any ideas?

12v ac be abit hard to find!

As for driving lights, use the same positive as the parkers. or run a new switch and line from the battery!

[Baby Face]

Basically i want them to turn on when i turn on the car, if i have to use my parkers then it feels to me like i defeated the purpose because the parkers could of just doubled as a drl then.

would the best bet be to just run the positive into the cab and get from there? i want to keep the wire as short as i can though.

Bbf I believe that there is a plug in the cabin fuse box for day time running lights

I suspect AC requires an AC generator...

I wouldn't go from the inside as i suspect the wires wouldn't be rated for the current required for a DRL system


What are you doing anyway? these?

I'm quite sure they don't put the circuit in. Plus the DRL's are low power high beams anyway so they'll be be wired differently to additional bulbs

they have the circuit for fog lights like how they are in the prelude and civics.

one plug is to come on (with a switch but you dont need to have the switch in there if you dont really want to) with the headlights, and one is to come on with accessories

oh but I dont think he means 12VAC, I think he means 12VDC lolololol

[Jasemas]

he wants to put foglights in me thinks

i'm talking about actual DRL not fog

oh but I dont think he means 12VAC, I think he means 12VDC lolololol

i know i am being a potata

same same nikka

fag light hook up will be the same as DRL

[curtis265]

i'm not talking about shitty add ons wired to a new circuit bor, i'm talking about OEM DRLs

[Baby Face]

i mean 12v accesorri or even egnition would be fine

yeh i got the fangs. i get cut off a lot. and yes curtis is right the factory DRL is just high beams at 30%
