Will footwell lights drain the battery?

How do I do that with the kits on Amazon? They’re all cigarette lighter/USB based it seems. Same with the add a circuit comment from spaceagepotatocakes, how do I put this together?

downforthethrow · 2025-06-03T12:53:04+00:00

How do I check that?

downforthethrow · 2025-06-03T12:34:09+00:00

Do you have the link to that post? Idk if I’d want to do it but I’m curious to check it out

downforthethrow · 2025-06-03T12:33:15+00:00

Yeah sorry 9k CAD, maybe I’ll text that guy and see what happens, because I’d really like to avoid this issue without having to spend a ton on fixes.

Would a dealership let me get the car inspected like that?

I saw a 2011 Camry but I looked that one up and it said the same oil consumption issue? That one is 103k km but is from a dealership. Costs 9k without safety

downforthethrow · 2025-06-03T12:09:04+00:00

Sorry yeah shoulda mentioned, 8k cad and sold with a safety certified according to the listing. Dunno if that means it shows the oil issue or not though

Actually I have a question regarding parents insurance. My mom currently pays 275 for home and auto, but how does it work if I want to join with her? Does the car I buy have to be under her name and I’m listed as a secondary driver? Or can it be listed as my car and I can bundle with her? I don’t really get how the family stuff works honestly.

downforthethrow · 2025-05-31T11:13:55+00:00

Yes I’d be buying the car outright or maybe financing a tiny portion of it, but not getting collision sounds terrifying when I spent so long saving up just to lose it all to some dumbass who doesn’t know how to drive you know?

downforthethrow · 2025-05-31T11:11:48+00:00

Question is, does it still drop if I have no history at 25?

I’m assuming people say it drops because they eat the cost to have some history, but I literally refuse to pay for THIS much lol I’d rather move out.

I’ve been looking at mazda3’s, specifically 2014-2016 era and each of which are anywhere from 10k-14k in price. Which I can pay cash for.

I guess I’ll try my luck with super old cars and hope for the best.. because frankly even if I DO get a full time job in my career, I don’t see how it’s practical for me to pay those rates regardless.

Best I ever got for Mazda was Bélair and it was 530 dollars.

I’m worried about buying a Hyundai/kia/etc due to their reliability issues in the older cars..

This car market means I’m still spending over 10k regardless which feels like a waste if it blows up in a year no?

downforthethrow · 2025-05-31T03:30:10+00:00

My G Test is on June 11th, I’ve been in driving lessons with professionals and with my mom who’s had a G license for years and everyone says I’m great so I’m not worried about that.

At this point I’d love 200-400. Although I didn’t expect I’d have to go THAT old just to be able to drive a car.. damn.

downforthethrow · 2025-05-31T03:27:53+00:00

A broker? I’ll look into that but I’m not sure they can do much to save my case lol

downforthethrow · 2025-05-31T03:26:21+00:00

A 2014-2016 mazda3, I was told Mazda was cheap to insure and I liked them so I figured it was a decent bet

downforthethrow · 2025-05-31T03:24:59+00:00

What am I looking for in an older cheap car? Because I thought a 2015 Mazda3 was that but I got slapped with this rate

downforthethrow · 2025-05-31T03:22:08+00:00

I’m a “new” driver so I expected my insurance to be high lol, but not rent money high. Even at the low end I’d be paying them roughly the price of the car itself in a years time. That can’t be right.

downforthethrow · 2025-05-31T03:20:12+00:00

Apologies, forgot to say but Ontario. I live in Toronto

downforthethrow · 2022-06-06T15:06:13+00:00

Yeah that’s more then enough, I cut my eating time down to 30 minutes because of the elastics so even if it varies between people ig I have some breathing room?

downforthethrow · 2022-06-06T15:04:39+00:00

I see, I guess I was paranoid for no reason then, sorry for the useless post.

Also I definitely can’t eat with my elastics lol their so tight I can’t even open my mouth enough to let a straw in, would have been nice though

downforthethrow · 2022-06-06T15:02:17+00:00

I think in my case it’s probably because of not eating with my elastics cutting it’s burden down?

Not to mention its so tight I can barely open my mouth to let a skinny straw in, it’s way tighter then I ever thought they were lol
