[QUOTE="zillamonsta, post: 6841612, member: 622751"] Sweet I got it working! All I had to do was ground that black cable to some metal...but i still am having some minor problems.. 1) How do i get the black cable to stay grounded? When I would tape it down I had to literally push down on the top of it for there to make a connection with the metal. If I would take my finger off the dvd player would turn off. 2) My key wouldn't come out of the ignition until i unplugged the red wire. What could fix this? Thanks so much for the help. I almost got it [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] And to the guy above, I did buy it from there and they were douche bags. I would have understood if they politely told me no, but that wasn't the case. They were basically disgusted. Thanks for your input, but it didn't help me further my project whatsoever.
