I'm just saying you are "ground to ground" since the chassis is the common ground.

Alright, it's time to go find some grub... yes, at 1 am. >.>

See, I always knew you were smart. Now I see it too, thanks - My tired brain just wasn't getting that part.

Or one of these in the cup holder below the power outlet. No installation needed. Honestly, does anyone use the cup holders down there, when there's a nice one up by the vent? I've always wondered about that.

The 12v outlet that comes with the car is normally dead- it is switched on with the ignition. The second one could be a fused, but "always on" plug for charging phones, etc. that's why I'd like to do this mod.

You'll need to find an always hot lead to tap. Not sure right now but I have a link.

I need some help here. I own a 2011 Honda Fit Sport and I'd like to add 3 additional power outlets; an extra one in the front, one in the passenger area (behind the center console) and one in the rear storage area near the fifth door.

I am not that familiar with doing this work myself, and I don't want to burn my car down, so I think the best bet for me is to have someone do the work for me. I live in southern California. Do any of you have any recommendations as to a shop that could properly do this work?

Thanks.
