Re: Trickle charging a Niro hybrid?
If your going to charge the 12v battery thats in the boot ... DISCONNECT THE BATTERY FROM THE CAR FIRST .... Never put a 12v charger on a battery thats connected to the car ,or it could and probably would do some damage to the electrics .

Re: Has anyone changed their radio speakers ?
I very doubt anyone would want to change the speakers , the system sounds great ..... If you want to boost the system , fit a sub woofer if you have a Nero 1 or 2 ... if you have a Nero 3 , it has a sub fitted as standard .

Re: Bulb upgrade
I have converted my headlights to LED , but you have to have the 3 sided 6000K .. 4 sided are crap . 2 sided leaves a dark line across the middle . They are a vast improvement .. As you know the headlight bulbs are HB3 or 9005 ... And the 3 sided Leds are becoming hard to get . Got mine from Ebay .....

Re: need extra battery
To answer your question regarding adding a 12volt lead acid battery is ... NO... As you know on the 2018 Niro ,the voltage to power the electronics comes from the LiPo battery , but you can't get a true 12 volts from a LiPo battery , its either 11.1 volts or 14.8 volts , i would say its 14.8 volts ....

Until they really master the Super Capacitor to replace the Lipo battery , its not worth talking about .

Re: Daytime running lights, switching off.
I've had a look at the manual , fuse box , and there isn't one specific fuse for the DRLs .. It is a legal requirement for the DRLs to be on , if you do disconnect them and you take it for an MOT it will fail .. Also if you have an accident and the insurance find out , then that will be a modificati...
