so i have interior leds all over my car. i got strips in the footwells, 2 superflux bulbs in each center vent, 2 superfluxes in each door panel cubby, a strip in the center cubby hole by the shifter, another strip in the cup holder and a strip in eash rear cup holder. so thats 10 superflux bulbs and 6 strips. now my question is does it matter if i have a fuse tap for the switch because they are all wired to one switch. i have the wireless remote switch from oznium. so far i havent had problems but i thought id ask because ive seen a few post were ppl suggest using one....

Hey email me I respond quicker cause it goes to my phone ([email protected]) One red wire which goes from power term. on the switch to the battery. Second red will go to the source (aka led) Third wire will go through the negative on the source (aka led) and then travel to the negative battery ( you can hook it to something else like a bolt but I find the negative battery to be the most reliable).Splice the the red line that directly connects to the battery add your fuse holder(for my leds (2 strips) I used a 25amp fuse, I thought this was high but I tried several other various fuse amps non of them worked) So I would suggest buy a case of various fuses and add them till you get one that works.

Do you know where to run wires from inside to engine??? Cause it fu@k'd me up pretty bad.
