Can anyone tell me where to find the parking light power source? I have something that needs to connect to it to get power, and I have a red wire and a black wire.

I have a 1993 Honda Civic del Sol S. I am new to modifying my own car, so this is probably a totally stupid question, but I have to start somewhere.

Thanks.

The guy who sold me this car gave me a APC Speed-Glo gauge kit (part 202008) that he bought for it and never installed. I thought I would try installing it to get a feel for the car's layout. The instructions just mention to connect the red wire to the power source for the parking lights, which is as far as I got -- actually, the last step.

 

One thing I seemed to have discovered after more research...

Can I just hook the power to another wire using the parking lights powering? IE - the dimmer switch? This wiring would be up behind the instrument panel thing, right? Near the dimmer knob?

 

sure.

 

i wouldn't reccomend tapping straight off the dimmer switch b/c i don't know how many volts it operates on. to stay on the safe side tap a corner light or any other 12volt bulb that is tied into the parking light circuit
