Hey I ordered a bunch of led kits for the interior/exterior of my MM. Havent really messed with car electronics too much other than a simple radio changeout or two...

I won't need to beef up my alternator or anything right? From my understanding led's don't require much juice.

What do I need to come off the battery to make multiple +- spots? I don't want a mess of cables on my battery or starter.

What is a good online resource for cheap, reliable electronics useful for my situation?


I look at the electronic projects some of you guys do on your rauders and it's intimidating to say the least...I'm just starting to learn how to do all this and I want to do it right.

Thanks!

LEDs use less power. If you want a led to work with the interior lighting then tap into it, same for trunk hood turn signal etc
