Radio wiring question...

[smithma7 at yahoo.com (Mike Smith)]

Yeah, I had to connect both wires from radio to the constant power to get it to work.  I like listening to it without having car running, but I have to be careful and remember to turn it off before getting out.  Don't want a dead batt!

This is why all VWs (at least the ones I've been in) allow for the radio to
run with car completely off - both wires are connected to constant +12V. You
could connect it to an ignition harness wire if you wish, but there's no
existing ciruit to carry out this specific function...

> Just got my radio, and the harness has two separate wires - one for
constant (battery) power, and one for ignition power. (The battery power is
a thicker gauge) Since the Scirocco only has one power wire (constant),
what do I do with the ignition harness wire? Find a wire that is ignition
power somewhere? ... Thanks!
