    I have a alpine radio in my 04 GP Comp G. What fuse do you have to hook it to so it will shut off with car? Thanks Johnny

    if you have a volt meter,check for constant and swithced poer or hook up one of the wire to a constant source of power and hook the other one up to a switched source or one that comes on with the car

    ick! The adapter is like 20$ tops! I always hate getting cars into the lot where people cut up the factory wiring to save a little $. Mainly because I'm the guy that has to set it back to rights.

    If that is what you are doing, DON'T!!!! Save yourself a bucket load of time and trouble and buy the adapter!
