Default Sticky for C6 Audio?

Not that I mind answering PMs but isn't it time that we had a C6 audio sticky? Most of the key questions have been posted and answered.

Steve -- do you know where there is a source for ignition only power. I'm in the middle of my install, and to my surprise the power to the radio stays hot even after the doors are opened and retained accessory power goes off. I need a source that doesn't stay on all the time. I checked the heated seats, but they appear only to be 5 volts or so.

Thanks.

Steve

I would run a relay using the antenna trigger. Tap the power you are running for the amp and have the relay switched closed by the same trigger that you are using for the amp. I believe that the pin you want is the B2 on the C1 plug.

I would not trust any of the ignition on hot circuts - too many variables in the C6.
