Any electrical issues

Where do I plug this in?

Hi All,

Had this for some time now and I might as well get it fitted. Just not sure where to wire it in to. It's basically a flashy LED alarm indicator so it'll need to bypass the ignition and run straight from the battery?

Any help appreciated, thanks

Get a multimeter to find a switched live.

there'll be spare 12V permanent lives and switched lives in the fuse box BUT you'll probably find the clifford LED operates at far less than 12V and that'd melt it ..... I cant remember the voltage off hand but seem to recall its round about 2.5V. an odd amount to stop people just buying clifford LED's no doubt as you'd need the alarm to get the correct output for it to work.
