just bought me a nice shiny Pioneer CD-IB100 (the adapter needed to seemlessly control an iPod from the headunit)
- anyway, i've never wired stuff like this up before and although i understand the principles of switched live / permanent live and all that, i've never actually done it...
so... to power it there is a yellow (perm. live) and black (ground) cable coming from the unit, now my question is how do i connect these up?
initially i just thought i'd tap into the ones going into the stereo but the manual that came with this thing states:
"NEVER feed power to other equipment by tapping into an existing power lead, The current capacity of the lead will be exceeded causing overheating"
so... that ideas out of the window, so is the proper way to get a feed directly from the fusebox or summat?
