issue installing alpine 3552

[infamshxr]

My friend just acquired an old school Alpine 3552 4/3/2 ch amp. Somehow, we never noticed until we were almost done hooking it up, but the amp has a 2-pin molex connector for the remote turn on wire. I've never seen this before, but this is also the oldest amp I've installed. The guy I called at Best Buy said I have to contact Alpine for some adapter. If I can't find this adapter, which I cannot find online so far, nor any info to what it is (probably partially due to the fact that I don't know the correct term for that kind of connector), does anyone know if and/or how to hardwire the remote turn on wire to that 2-pin connector? Maybe a short and quick tutorial on the easiest and safest way to accomplish this. Thanks in advance.

What is the answer? I have a 3552 also.

Couldn't you solder a wire to the board?

I have used / made my own with 16ga butt connectors, and heat shrinked over them, making like a plug connector/adapter for a 3550, and works great.Or you can still pick up the parts at Radio Shack to make if you have the patience
