Turn signal wiring and fusing questions

1. If wiring aftermarket sidemarkers to the headlight turn signals, would I need to increase any fuse sizes?

2. Where can I tap turn signal power when running wires from the side mirrors? Would I have to increase any fuses here too?

Thanks.

Increasing the fuse would be a bad idea since it's related to the wire size. If you increase the fuse you risk pulling more current than the wire can handle and burning up the insulation.


That being said, you shouldn't need to change the fuse, especially if what you're adding is LED.
