Chaps
My car 'would' have come with the stock Concert CD (Non bose) running front speakers.
+ stock amp running rear speakers and sub.
I bought the car with an aftermarket Sony stereo which im keeping, but with just radio 2 and front speakers it needs work..
Eventually/maybe I plan to run my own amp/sub. But first will see how I get on with my aftermarket Infinity door speakers running from the stereo and stock amp..
I found the following statement from AndyMac on a post sometime last year
--
As there is no ignition feed on the Audi loom, you need to either wire one in from the fusebox or pair the red and yellow wires together and turn the HU on/off manually
--
I dont want to spend out on Canbus and my power cables are currently bodged to work with me manually turning the HU on/off..
So my questions
1). Is there an adaptor I can buy to use with my Sony that will activate my rear amp and so activating my rear speakers/sub?
2). Where and how do I run the ignition live to the fuse box?
3). As AndyMac previously advised to me an another post - I bought CT27AA05 Aerial/Antenna VAG Active ISO Adaptor. He advised to run the blue wire from this adaptor to the 'power antenna lead' - Now this is a potenially stupid question, but on my stereo there are 2 blue wires hanging around seperate from the rest. One has a sticker says remote, the other antenna. I guess im to attach to this antenna wire?
Cheers
