I'm just trying to check if I have the right wire before I go ahead and cut. Am I right in thinking the ignition wire that I would be splicing a wire onto for a radio would be the grey and red wire? The black being earth and the yellow thinner wire being lighting for it (tho I see no lighting parts to it).

Just making sure before i rush ahead and cut.

Thanks in advance, guys.

Hello,

Attached the eLearn doc regarding the cigar lighter / power socket.
Thanks. That's great and all, but as thers no key to what wire is what, and what colour is what, its not that usefull. I'm aware there are 3 wires coming off the lighter and it's wired into the car, which is pretty much what I can learn from that diagram...as well as using my eyes and some common sense 😉😁

I guess I'm asking, is the red and grey wire the one I want or not?
