yes it only turns on when the fog lights or headlights turn on...basically the 1st click u make on the light switch, and it turns on...that is y i hooked it up there.

but im not sure if its 12v, it might be 5v...and i need to know if that's going to be a problem if the pedals im hooking up need a 12v source...will that blow some **** out.

Its 12. I repaced some of the wee bulbs in the heater controls and everywhere that they didn't work and theyre all 12. If it blows a fuse, put a bigger one in.

ok cool, well it seems fine so far, i had my lights on driving today, and the INDIGLO pedals, blacklight were fine, nothing blew out.

But how many different devices can i use for the same 12V?
I have the INDIGLO plugged into the ash tray wires..and those wires continue into the ash tray light. Then i have my blacklight running from the INDIGLO wires. Now can i plug more stuff into let's say the black light wires..etc? Or can that overload the 12v source?

let me know.

WHat id do is keep hooking up stuff to it that seems sensible of course. A fuse will blow somewhere before you melt wires etc.
