Why need this? Why not simply splice the wires that would come from the
power supply into the appropriate sorts of wires on the car?
I do not know how to construct a circuit, nor have I such a friend, but
heck, the wires coming out of the power supply supply standard voltages
that a car supplies out of its fusebox to travel to all the different bulbs
and such.

no, not to be read that! I mean, off the fuse box sitting behind the dash!
anyway, I'm expressing my imagination, but I've not bothered to research
the precise needs of the board vs the car, still, I remember studying the
voltages into the computer components and that they were the self same
voltages that the car's fusebox delivers out.

They don't here. The stores in this city in the malls are reduced
versions carrying a limited supply of the tech stuff,
unfortunately. Mostly carry gadgets and electronics, few parts. More
likely to find them at Canadian Tire, really. No matter, I can find them
when I'm ready.
