[QUOTE="bubbagumper6, post: 7371600, member: 567719"] 87A is not used. 85 goes to whatever turn on signal wire you decide to use (ACC or something from your radio) 30 goes directly to the battery for 12V Before you chop off that cigarette adapter make sure you look it over. Your radar detector may not run off 12V and that adapter might have an internal circuit that steps the voltage down to 5V or something similar. In which case if you cut it off and directly wire in 12V your likely to let the smoke out of your radar detector. Check the plug very carefully, there's probably a sticker on it somewhere with some information. [/QUOTE]
