Just got done installing Alpine IVA-C800
Install was very easy! I only have one question to you guys......
Do you know how to make the head unit work like the stock? when you start the car and turn it off the radio shuts off, but you can use the radio with the ignition off...
right now i have it hooked up so you can use the head unit with the engin on or off. only porblem is you manually have to turn the thing off now.... i would like to have the old stock feature if possible.

Guess; the play feature when engine is shut off is part of the radio itself. Might take some difficult installation and rewiring of relay(s) in wiring plus an external pushbutton switch to get something workable.

Juan. There is a red power lead that needs to be hooked to a switched lead, meaning your stock radio has or had a wire that was switched on and off with the ignition. Find that wire, preferably using a voltometer. Connect your red wire to it and the yellow fused link to a constant 12v source and you should be good to go.
