Stereo in 97 Saxo
Hey all,
Just put a HU into my Saxo and when switching the car off the stereo turns off, i'm sure there will be a wire i need to connect but after a quick look (it's getting dark) i couldn't find one and i don't have the book that came with the car.
Could anyone tell me or point me in the right direction of finding which wire i need to hook up?
It's a Sony HU (I know you guys don't like them from what i've read but it was cheap off a mate!) if that helps i don't know.
Thanks in advance.

CAn't edit posts? Just to add the stereo keeps its settings so not sure if it is doable in a Saxo?

I want it to come on without having the ignition on or the keys in it, like most cars do nowadays, is this feasible?

well i know the standard saxo units do it but aftermarket ones dont
think its just a case of having another permanent live in place of the switched live tbh, but id just leave it how it is in case it does any damage
