    The "Help keep Hot Pocket from Electricuting hisself" thread

    So I just found out that my head unit has no remote turn on lead
    fawking germans!

    Any way to get the amp to turn on without killing the battery while the car isn't on?

    Checked all the fuses under hood but not kick panel... all of them draw power even when the car is off... Can I wire in some sort of switch? I'm getting very frustrated with this damned car.
