[QUOTE="cbrei1023, post: 6304438, member: 604816"] I have a 93 Mazda MX3. When I went to install a new head unit I noticed that the wireing harness was not stock. There was a big clump of electrical tape and then OEM wireing behind it. After I took off the tape I realized that the harness in there could not have been an OEM part. The wires are too far back into the dash for me to be able to hook up new wires properly. I was wondering if I could simply run a wire from the ingnition wire and the 12V power wire straight to the battery and then put a switch on the ingnition wire to be able to turn power on and off. Then just ground normally. Will this work? [/QUOTE]
