    Found my first issue to figure out. No power at the cigarette lighter. 12v at fuse but not at the wires at the lighter. Check with the car running. Now to see where it ties to a ground or something. I was hoping to have 12v at the switch. And just replace the switch. But nothing can be easy.

    The wire isn’t vampire staked.

    So still head scratching, when I install the radio I’ll be able to dig deeper. Just waiting on some other accessories to come in to install it. Use it for awhile with the Harmon Kardon system before I remove to swap in a system I have in the garage..

    Welcome to M/A!

    Nice looking MCS! If DetroitTuned has added some mods to your car, you can take it to the bank that it has been modded right. Again, welcome and Happy New Year!

    They have always been my go to parts supplier and are the best in the business, IMHO.

    If you are interested, go to Minis on the Dragon in NC this Spring. They will be there doing mods. Tell Chad [the owner] I said "hi" and that I'll see him there.

    Did anyone use a vampire clip on the back side of the cigarette lighter? If so they may have cut the wire
