Question

Just wondered if any1 can share any tips on what is needed to hard wire devices which currently use the cigarette lighter?
Namely looking at speed detector type device(s) Hence is it as easy to wire a load of the buggers in at the same time?
I guess going too OTT on devices might have fuse implications but any tips 4 a electrical numpty like me will be greatfully received
Cheers

for my snooper i used the ignition 12v feed from the stereo.
or easier to get to, theres also a ignition 12v from the switches around the handbrake area (MY99).
