Ice-Link Plus

Does anyone know where I should tap into so that I can provide 12 volts, which feeds the power supply for the DSP Converter kit? I was told purple/white = positive and brown = negitive...please help.

There is a 3 pin cable that goes to the CD changer (and will need to be connected to the IceLink) that is comprised of a +12V, ground and i-bus lead. Tap the 12V lead (a multimeter test set should quickly tell you which one is 12V)

If you cannot find the correct wire, you can use the fuse panel on the pass side - nothing on the bar is switched 12V power. The power draw is very minimal, I wouldn't worry about it.

No one I can personally recommend in Australia, but any 12V installer should be able to perform the install for you in under an hour.
