DSE Wiper kit - what should I use for power?
The kit comes with what appears to be 10ga wire and a 30a fuse, which is alot bigger than anything I have available under the dash or hood that is switched 12v.
Does it matter? Seems like overkill not to mention difficult to splice cleanly if I use one of my auxiliary power terminals or jumpers that is only 14ga or so and on a 10 or 20a fuse. Do I need to run a 10ga off the battery and use a relay off my switched 12v?

Electricity! :)
For starters, what does the diagram state? Is it a switched or constant power lead?

Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

Sorry I thought I was clear that it was switched. The directions simply state: Connect to 12v switched source.
