There is a blue wire and a blue/white wire right?

Using the Blue wire on a car without a power antenna would cause the CD player to not work, not the radio reception, right?

yes, there are 2 blue wires... however, if u look on the bag that the harness came with, it will tell u what wire it is, then u look on the harness that came with the radio and it should be taged power ant. then u put one and one together and there, radio is back and running.

when i did my install i though power ant was the kinda ant that pops up when u turn on the radio. so i didn't install it, but i later found that it wasn't the case. hehe

getting movies on your ipod

Originally Posted by hakstern

get a program called videora and a program called dvd decrypter. just google for them, if you are having problems finding them, just send me your email and I'll send them to you. there are alot of instruction online telling you how to get a movie from a dvd to your ipod using those 2 programs, you DO NOT have to buy any movies from itunes. In fact I highly recommend you dont support their filthy business model of reselling you movies you already own in a degraded format (mp4).

I'll be glad to walk you through the process if you'd like, once you've gone through it one time, its easy.
