Fitted led lights to Honda Prelude (`97) European spec. Is there anywhere in the engine bay where I can connect these low voltage lights to. Don`t want to use sidelights (parking lights?) connection.

Well if you want control independently, it would be wise to connect the turn on device inside the car where it is easily accesible, you can do it in the engine bay, only drawback is you would have to pop the hood to turn the leds on! prelude led front daylights -- posted image.

Doh ..I should`ve said- I simply want the lights on when ignition on .Don`t require independent control.

Hoped a honda head could say : As you`ve no 4  wheel steer or air con you could tap off the.....circuit at the under bonnet fuse box or even:

tap into horn/washer motor/ or other loom in engine bay.?

Seems crazy to run wires back and fro through bulkhead when there must be spares both sides.!?

An ignition feed can be easily found at the fusebox under the hood, or the harness that enters through the firewall!

Fusebox already located but how to connect to it?

Can`t I use any of the terminals already there in fusebox ? Must I disconnect the fusebox from the chassis to access the wires?

What type of connection are you assuming I`m making?

There has to be an easy way!!

The wires that exit the bottom of the fusebox, I am sure they enter a factory wiring loom that leads to the cabin of the car, can you trace this and possibly find a part of the harness where your hands can work to open the harness up and test for an ignition feed, i'm positive you can!

You will also need a meter or a test light!

P.S- would have saved you a heck of alot of time and energy to just run a single ignition feed wire into the car and connect it to the BLACK / YELLOW at the igniton harness!

Hi , Thanks Decided to run an untidy wire from battery via fuse to front lights with a switch.Shall add remote control to a relay later.It`s messy but it works.
