where to connect led strips wires?

Hi guys,

I bought these: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...#ht_3087wt_905

but the problem is I have no clue where I should connect them to! i wanted them in the front engine bay area. and I just know they are 12v rated but nothing on the current =/

Any one got any ideas

Hook up positive to positive and negative to ground.. not much to it. if you want a switch, then wire it into your cabin. Hardest part is probably getting the wire through the firewall. Be sure to put in a fuse also, and a very small one at that.. those things barely pull any current.

thanks for that, I was worried about power/current rating, but I guess thats not a problem (noob in electricity). for the fuse what current rating do you think I should get?
