INSTALLATION
Find fuse box in car (fuse
position differs among
different vehicle brands).
Consult vehicle user manual
for placement.
Open fuse box cover
plate, measure the
placement for wiring from
fusebox to powered product.
Plug in USB power device

4
Locate a ground point
near the fuse box. There
is usually either an obvious
labeled ground point or
a nut / bolt that connects
directly to chassis.
Decide whether you

want your device wired to a
switched or unswitched fuse.
Switched circuits only have
power when the vehicle is
ON. Unswitched circuits
always have power.
You can verify if it’s switched
or unswitched using a simple
circuit tester.
NOTE: Make sure your
vehicle is off and the key is
not in the ignition.
Choose your desired TAP
fuse. Once you select the
desired TAP fuse for your
vehicle, attach to the power
cable using the bullet
connectors, then cover with
plastic sleeve.

INSTALLATION
7Starting at the USB powered
product, tuck power cable into
the headliner. Once you get to
the (A) pillar, there may be a
sufficient gap to place power
cable or it may be necessary to
remove. The A pillar is the plastic
piece that runs down the side
separating the windshield and
the door. Route the power cable
along the side and behind the
rest of the interior panels down
towards the fuse box.
