First and foremost, this usergroup is awesome and apparently filled with people who did not nap in engineering class. Thanks for all of your help.

I was able ot get all of my connections up and going with the helpful guides and instructions.

I installed an IceLink Plus, Dietz 1417 with an ME3 and the Dietz 1280 with a switch (I put my switch in the glovebox).

I used the constant on (+12 V) and the ground from the RNS-E wiring harness for all of these components including the switching connection of the ME3.

:?: QUESTION #1 I have heard of several options for the ME3 ACC connection including a manual power switch or using a fuse connection that is switched based on the ignition position. Is there no pin out on the back of the ME3 that is used as a remote that could be configured with a relay to meet this need? (How does the Bose amp turn on and off or is it on all of the time also?)

:?: QUESTION #2 I am getting horrible reception from the ME3 supplied TV anntenna. Can it be upgraded, if so with what? Is there a better position than under the dash attached to what looks like the back of the airbag mount?

Thanks Again

some have suggested to use pin 13 (U14), but i have read that you must use a relay with it..

Teddy (who always does his homework) was going to give this one a try, but hasnt had a chance to install it yet..
