    Look for a Blitzsafe Adapter, don't know how it compares in price but seems to be a lot less of a unit.



    That's mine with the Blitzsafe and RCAs attached in.

    Just dig down, its often hidden and its wrapped in a foam cover. Might not realize its a plug at first, but look for a foam end.

    I went out and looked again and this is the closest thing I could find. Is this it?

    Quality is good. I got it from Saturnine, you can order them online. Some audio shops carry them as well.

    That's not it.
    You know how you have the tool kit and rack, its between that and the passenger compartment. It will be a wire that ends with a plug, and has a soft foam cover around the plug. There is a bit of a hollow down there, stuff your hand in there and dig around.

    By the way, you PM box is full, tried to get back to you. Empty out your sent folder.

    I replaced everything with the system, except for the headunit. It definately sounds good, I play my MD player through that.

    It's hidden down in that opening somewhere. You might want to take off the black plastic trim along the trunk, then pull out the trunk carpet. Undo the clips and pull the side trunk lining back. That will give you access into it and you'll be able to see and find the plug much easier. I know many have had a hard time digging for it.

    Stupid question, but how do I remove the trim? Pics if possible, as you can prolly tell, I'm one of those visual learners

    Ripple, how do you have yours wired to the cabin?

    I run RCA cables from the rear up into the glove box where it plugs into my MD Player. Then have my MD player remote in the ash tray, I pop that open to change songs etc.

    To remove the trim.
    Take black pastic piece of opening along the trunk. A bunch of scres and it pops out.
    Unscrew the black holders/nuts by the rear taillight that allows you to pull the carpet back and gain access to the light.
    Take the trunk carpet out.
    Now you should be able to pull the trim back. Its snapped in place in a couple of spots.

    Unfortunately I don't have pics of taking it apart, and can't go snap any because I am at work.
