I'm wanting to run power to the back seat of my Mega cab. Great truck, but no power outlets. I want to install two power plugs, and hardwire an Audiovox SDB45 Switch for two hardwired screens with DVD's.
Probably overkill, but I'm terminating a fused 4 GA run from the battery to a six circuit fused DC Sub panel (max 100A) under the seat. Grounding to the vehicle at the seat bolts and the DC Sub Panel. This will allow me to hardwire the outlets, switching unit and two LCD/DVD's in the headrest.
Total draw at max usage will be about 70 amps, but I want the overhead to possibly install something else on the sub panel later.
Now, to the question.... the LCD/DVD's and Switching unit need an ACC connection. where is the best place to tap this? I could go off the switched Power outlet on the dash, the back of the stereo, or even the ignition.... But I was thinking of an Add-A-Circuit in the fuse box. would this handle the LCD/DVD's, and SDB45?
Finally, I was thinking I should make the power outlets switched as opposed to constant... they could draw up to 30A if I had an inverter plugged in. where should I pull the ACC for that?
Sorry for the long post, but you should have all the info you need.
Thanks in Advance
Warren
