[QUOTE="Raph, post: 8711258, member: 680553"] I prefer to make phone calls while parked as my car is quite noisy and on returning home I will often stay in the car listening to the end of an audiobook chapter or song with the engine off. I've bought a Pioneer DEH-S520BT but my car has no ignition ACC position. Position 1 is steering unlock and 2 is 'ignition on' meaning that I must either make bluetooth calls and continue listening with the engine running or have the ignition and dash lights on while possibly heating the coils up. Not a problem, I'll simply split the constant memory feed to power the set and everything will be fine. Sadly this isn't the answer as my Pioneer doesn't switch off. It stops working when the off switch is pressed but the buttons remain ablaze like a Christmas tree and the time displayed, unless power is cut. Is there a clever solution more elegant than sticking an aftermarket on/off switch somewhere under the dash and with minimal loom surgery ? All help appreciated. The car is an S1 Elise. [/QUOTE]
