    Im planning on adding some accessories to my truck which includes: power mirrors, power windows & locks, lighted vanity mirrors in the sunvisors. I would like to run all of these accessories together and install a fuse. I know a fuse is to protect the wire....so what gauge wire would you recommend? Also, where would be a good place to tap into? I already installed an alarm and tapped into the ignition harness for that. Id like to stay away from that.

    Thanks.

    Actually, now that I think about it. The sunvisors and locks will need a 12v constant source. And others just ignition.

    i've seen some add a fuses' at the parts store.

    you plug it into the socket and it gives you 2 fuse sockets and a wire to tap into.

    i'll try to find a pic
