Dont know if anyone has done a thread on this before... But i have a Eonon DVD Player.. im trying to get the steering wheel connection.. It says it needs a 5V power connection. I found where to hook up to the steering wheel control to program with, but i dont know where to get the power, I asked the company and they said if i hook it up to a 12V source it will fry the radio... anyone have an idea if there is a 5V source in our car or how to make a 12V into a 5V... i went to radio shack and they didn't have a clue..but they looked stoned out of their minds anyway :dunce:
