Hi all, I've got some EL wire for a little window mod I'm doing. I'm going to run it underneath the U-channel around the edge of my window so it glows blue.
Firstly, does anyone know of any brand of good CLEAR/TRANSLUCENT U-channel, or where I can get some decent stuff? I bought some online recently and it was no where near flexible enough for my window. There is tons of black U-channel out there, but finding clear stuff is proving hard.
Now, onto the EL wire. I've never used it before so I just wanted to know whether I can change the connections around on it.
Here is the kit I bought
As you can see it has a 12v car cigarette lighter adapter, I assume I can simply snip this off, and wire it via a molex?
Preferably though, I would like to get rid of the little AC/DC converter box. So, would I be able to cut the converter off, and instead connect the EL wire to a 2pin connector, and stick it into my cathode converter?
