Hi
The stereo worked in my 90 until the engine was upgraded from a DT to 200TDi. The old engine had a live feed taken from the altenator but this has now gone and the radio didn't work anymore. I took the yellow and red feed and moved them on to the cig lighter and the radio now works. The problem is that when anything electrical is on like the wipers, fan etc the radio or cd cuts out.
Can anyone advise me on the best place to pick up a live feed for power (off the ingition would be nice) and memory which needs to be permenantly live (could leave on the cig lighter?). I'm presuming I can put the negative to a bodywork screw. Any help with this would be mucho appreciated.
Cheers.
PS. The 200TDi rocks over the DT
