Need to bring 12v cable into armrest.

[Cixi]

Do you know where I can get a 12v cable (like from the back of the cigarettes ligher but easier to connect) that will allow me to transport the cable into the armrest?
I have many electrical things inside there so I need to power them while moving.
Hope you can help me.

Hi Cixi.

I guess you are talking re your slk?

At the back of fuse box under hood are live screw terminals. Take a feed from one of those and drop it down thru the large grommet there.
Put a fuse on the lead at the fuse box end.

Ahh I see you have added an R171 SLK350 to your profile now, was blank before. ... not sure re that model.

Yes I have sold my old SLK 230K and bought a SLK 350

Is that you explained me valid for the 171 or 170?
The fuse box you are talking about is the one driver side near the light switch?

R170
Im sure 171 is similar.
The one I was mentioning was the under hood one.

Good to see you have a new car :0
