I am installing an inline FM modulator tonight so I can use my mp3 player in the car. I will be using the stock head unit, where is a good place to tap into to power the modulator?? In my Impreza I just used the cigarette lighter power as it was near where I mounted the modulator, but on the BMW it doesn't look so easy __________________ 98 318ti 05 Impreza | | | 06-14-2007, 09:01 PM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Fort Collins, CO Posts: 1,305 | i've tapped into the cigarette lighter under the plastic before to power a sirius radio. worked fine | | | 06-14-2007, 09:16 PM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2007 Location: Cary, NC Posts: 117 | I think that is what I am going to do, how do you get the cigarette lighter out? __________________ 98 318ti 05 Impreza | | | 06-14-2007, 09:21 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Fort Collins, CO Posts: 1,305 | i took the shift boot out and then there are some screws under the ashtray next to it you have to remove then that whole plastic piece just lifts out | | | 06-14-2007, 09:32 PM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2007 Location: Cary, NC Posts: 117 | Thanks for the info __________________ 98 318ti 05 Impreza | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
