[DMCForum] Wiring a CD Changer (was: amber turn signals)

["lakelanier20" <derek4567@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the responses on coloring the amber in the rear turn 
signals.  I'll let everyone know what I end up doing and how it
turns out.  
My next question is how to hook up an FM modulated CD changer.  I 
searched the archives right down to message # 1 on both lists, and 
found only bits and pieces of information.  
The plan is to put the changer in the locking compartment behind the 
driver's seat.  I read the best source of grounding here is the
top 
of the lambda unit near the ECU.  They also suggested wiring the 
power either to the door lock module or straight to the battery with 
an in-line-fuse in both cases.  My central locking is de-activated 
right now, can anyone shed some light on exactly how to hook up the 
power?  There are 3 power cables coming out of the CD changer, 1 to a 
continuous power source, 1 to a power source that comes on with the 
ignition, and 1 ground.  
As for the audio hookup, a couple of posts said that things are 
easier if you have the power antenna in the rear-driver quarter-panel 
of the car, and that this wire can be spliced into below the cargo 
deck.  While this bit of info does help, I don't really know
where to 
begin.  
Can anyone who has installed an FM-Modulated CD changer give me a 
walk-through?   Sorry for being so ignorant, I am picking up my car 
on Wednesday so I haven't yet had a chance to thoroughly examine
the 
specifics of the car.  I'm trying to get all this done in the
next 
couple of weeks so I can bring the car to Pigeon Forge.  I have a few 
other goodies in store as well, but I think I know how to do those.

Thanks for all the help,
-Derek
