Okay I went to best buy and bought the female clips for my car to radio (96 240sx). I have a factory clarion amp installed. I have been going off of this wiring diagram

[http://www.240sx.org/faq/articles/stereo\_bypass\_amps.htm](http://www.240sx.org/faq/articles/stereo_bypass_amps.htm)

Now this person apparently doesn’t hook up 9-10, 19-20. I believe these are power and ACC going into the AMP then coming out to the factor CD player. Has anyone here done this before? I woulda left it in but unfortunately I enjoy my music on my ipod.

Im sure I can figure it out but I see this guy wired a 2nd power wire from the battery to the CD player with a switch. Id rather not do that.

Thanks for the help!! :tup:
