First post...great site!
I am replacing the old aftermarket stereo with a newer one and have run into a snag. The 12V constant wire that was supplying power to the old radio was routed through the inspection light socket under the dash which I believe has shorted out. So I have chosen to go for power straight from the battery. I understand that this would require a wire to be run with an inline fuse.
My question is what gauge of wire and fuse should be used to do this properly?
