Default Re: Locobob's Interior Mod Thread

Perhaps some of you electrically savvy types can help me with a few things. I have the heated seat kit on the way, comes with switch so should just be a two wire install. Anyhow I have this unused connector under each seat which is for the sport seat lumbar and side bolsters - which I don't have. I think it will be perfect for the seat heaters.... except that it is always hot.


So I got to thinking... I could replace this connector with a relay - use the pink/black switched acc. wire to operate the relay and problem solved... seat heaters would be keyed power. The big orange coming in is on a 30amp breaker, the seat heaters use 3-5amps each. Then I got to thinking some more, perhaps I should also take power off this new relay for the switch panel I'm installing. I'm kinda concerned that the little 16 or 18 gauge pink/black wire is not going to like running both a radar detector, gps, third switch and operating the relay.
