Ok, so after a long ****ing day of pissing around with a new Double din radio I just got I have figured out how to install it. And **** me was it hard. Ok so this post is for anyone wanting to put a new radio into their 2007 Fiat Bravo T-Jet because I searched everywhere and I couldn't find ANYTHING. So, for some reason this car does not have an ACC Witch in radio terms is a Ignition Switch Live it only has Battery Live. Witch is stupid but never mind. After trying to find diagrams and all that. I resulted to a multi metre to find most of the things I needed I.e Ground and stuff anyways back to the point, to get these radio's to turn off and on with the ignition switch you will need to buy a Piggy Back Fuse Switch holder and install two 10amp fuses into it, then go to your fuse box behind your glovebox and find a live that only turns on when the car turns on, you want to plug your Piggy back fuse holder (with fuses plugged in) into that then run a wire to the back of the head unit. And into the ACC Or Ignition Switch live, you can also put other cables into it like ILLUMI Witch is the back lights on a double din if your new unit supports that. Then once it's all ran fine the radio should turn off and on with the ignition. This is the only way I have found that gets around the fact that the standard harness does not have an ignition switch live. Hope this helps people. If you need help just message

Hi,



Thanks for this. Sounds like a good solution.



Would you link to the piggy back fuse switch and fuses you used? First time trying this so want to make sure I'm using the right parts.



Has been totally impossible finding a solution which doesn't involve splicing in to the ignition barrel or cigarette lighter wiring.



Cheers!
