Hi folks ...

Being an "electrical gelding" I thought I should ask before acting ....

I am just about to install an overhead console (second hand) that I have come by into my '91 80 Series Cruiser. I was going to run the power and aerial wiring up inside the pillar to my UHF radio (Uniden), but as I go through the install, I find that there will be a connection (currently used for the overhead light) available, as the overhead light does not get installed. So I seem to have a source of power.

Can I connect my radio to this power source? Is there anything special I need to look out for or consider? I *think* this part of the wiring is serviced by a 10 amp fuse under the bonnet.

Many thanks, in the hope I have provided sufficient information.
