BEWARE of the alarm installer!

I had recently been having all sorts of wierd electrical phenomenon lately. Well today I decided to go digging and found that the alarm installer fried the 12V supply wire to the head lamp switch. Well being the guiness he was he took a heavy guage wire and took a household wire nut and tied it together with 4 small guage wires and crammed it into a fuse slot. He took the other end and crammed it into the light switch plug. well after I hooked a power inverter to the cig. lighter I kept blowing fuses. His plan sucked a**! The fuse it was plugged into couldn't handle the extra load and popped. It killed all the interior lights, head lamps, and cig. lighter. Well at least I can say this mickey mouse job was done before I bought the car. I always do my own work and this is why. Just wanted to pass on my experience.
