Sorry to clutter up the forum with a real beginner's question.

I've got a 1998 E430 Avantgarde saloon with a Becker 2210 FM/AM Cassette Player and I want to add a Revo DAB radio tuner. You'll see from Page 9 of this document http://www.revo.co.uk/downloads/revoguide.pdf that the Revo connects directly into the vehicle’s audio system through the aerial input of the existing FM radio.

I've got the unlocking keys and can access the BE2210's aerial input but where and how's the best place/way to connect the Revo's 2 power connectors to the vehicle's 12V power supply?

Thanks in advance for any tips.

I would have thought the ignition switched supply to the radio would be a good place to start.

Your radio feed is on the same cable as the cigar lighter, that's the easiest to get to.
