Post subject:  Stereo wiring

Just picked up a new stereo, got these two wires supplying power to the old stereo.

They were both soldered to the one 'power in' on the previous unit. I'm hoping that between them I have a mains and aux power supply. Anyone know, rather than me guessing?

Put a meter on them, see when you get 12V on them as you turn the key...

pretty much the easiest way.. If you leave them both connected to the head unit, you can still use it when the keys come out.
