remote lead goes from HU to amp and is only bell wire or something like that mate :) Just nip down to Focus or B&Q, or maplins and get a few minutes of bell wire or sometihng similar :thumbs:

as for the puter fan, i would wack a relay on the remote lead, with one connection going to amp and other to the fan :) Obviously, you will then need a 12v feed to the relay, but atleast then when you switch ya HU on, it will switch the fan and amp on :thumbs:

Just make sure the fan you've ordered is 12v and not 5v and that it has 2 connections (pos and neg). If its got a number of connections going to the fan, then google on how to bodge it. I think you can just use the pos/neg but the third wire is usually a sensor etc

right i orderd my ice off 2 websites, 1 was mcs-direct.co.uk the other was caraudiodirect.com

not heard nowt from them about my oreder wether its been prcessed or what.

i ordered saturday night, fair enough no one will be in till monday, but is it just me, or should it only take them 1 day to process the card details, then package it up then send it, i.e me recive it today (tuesday) or wednesday, and i aint had any emails sayin such an item is not in stock.

also i ahve emailed both website asking about it, yet to recive jack.
