Just wire it up with your stereo earth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way you can switch the switch to the handbrake and make it legal if you ever get pulled over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member 692 Member For: 17y 2m 2d Gender: Male Location: Newcastle Posted 16/08/09 12:51 PM Share Posted 16/08/09 12:51 PM there should already be a switch that switches it between dvd screen and the stock aircon details and such that you would normally always have visible, I cannot see why an extra handbrake switch to earth would be necessary to look legal if the police pulled you overonce u flick the switch to go from dvd picture back to stock screen that would be enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
