[blueluce]

The amp installed in 99 BMW wagon (bad location) was damaged at airport putting luggage into rear. The RCA input jack was broken...no/minimal audio now. Trying to figure next step. Appreciate any direction. Thanks.

This should be a fairly simple fix if you are decent with a soldering iron. Radioshack/parts express sell some panel mount rca jacks that may work for this repair. You would just need some little jumper wires between the jacks and the board. If that won't work you could go as far as cutting the ends off of a female set of rca cables and soldering them to the board. It wouldn't look good but it would still be fully functional. Shouldn't be a hard fix at all though.
