Easy Way To Divide Voltage Using Resistors.

If you need to divide the voltage to wire LEDs, or maybe to integrate an aftermarket stereo into a Ford vehicle with a premium sound system. This diagram will show you how it can be done by using a couple resistors.    


Now before you wire anything using this method, you must consider how much current you will need to power your circuit. You MUST use resistors rated at the appropriate "Wattage" and "Resistance" to allow your circuit to function properly. I will provide a link below to a "Voltage Divider Calculator" so you can get a better understanding of the resistors you will need in order to accomplish what you want. If you have any questions let me know.
