Remote wire for amp?
« on: May 30, 2021, 07:06:19 pm »
Hi all
I've run my power cable and rca's to my boot, but while I had the stereo out, I couldn't find a remote wire anywhere in the stereo loom?
Is there a remote wire anywhere near the boot area?

I believe the cigarette plugs are ignition Live aren't they? Will this wire be OK to use as a remote source ?

Thanks for the link mate.. I'll take the stereo out again tomorrow and have another look, but all my research shows videos where they have had to piggyback from fuse box as there is no ignition switch live behind the stereo
