the fuse for cig lighter is 25a, so should be capable of handling alot, plus the amps needed for the led's will be very low...

i know what you mean about trying to route the cable, its alot of hassle indeed

ah ok thanks for clearing that up about the amperage situation, didnt realise it was that high.

yeah i really can't be bothered with fiddeling around in tight spaces!

Has the Punto got an engine bay fuse box

Should be able to pick up a switched feed from there if your confident testing a few bits with a circuit tester

Yes, it has an engine bay fuse box

f8, 30a heater blower
f9, 20a headlight washer * not sure if that one will be in it
f10, 15a horn

These would be ignition switched

Damn it Colin, I could have used this info at the weekend! lol. Never mind!

Heater blower should be I'd have thought

Good news peeps, I'm sure you'll be glad to know that I finally succeeded in installing the DRLs!

It only took me ordering a different wiring system to get them working properly. I'll post a few pictures up later once i've donated to the forum, cos I've already run out of space in my profile.

here we go then.

no lights on:



DRL's on:



Lights on, DRLs off:



they dont look particularly bright in the picture, but i can assure you that they are noticeable!

I'll take a couple more when the light levels are lower.
