I bought the unit from Dominic. I have no problem removing the screen, connecting the cables, and securing the IR eye. I am not too savvy with fuses and 12v power. Question: who do I get power to the interface?

Please help...

Hello, I installed my mod two weeks ago ... of course there is no instruction how to connect it to power - there are many posibilities : I connected my mod to the power supply which is located in the gloves compartment (the one that is used for the rechargeable lamp) . It was really no problem ... greetings from Spain ... Mart?n-Alejandro
