Hi Folks,

Well, my request is exactly as it says on the tin.

As a bit of background, I've got an Ex-Police Facelift Miggy, but there's no aerial for the radio.  Looked under the back parcel shelf (it's a saloon), and there's no sign of the amplifier for the standard factory-fit rear screen heater element aerial jobbie either.

Anyway, I've got an aftermarket head unit fitted, which has an ISO connector.  Between that and the standard Miggy wiring harness for the radio, I've got one of those ISO-convertors.

I'm looking at fitting one of those electronic dashboard-mounted aerials (yes I know, cr@p reception, but it must be better than the sweet FA I have at the moment...), but they require a 12v feed.

I've thought about scotch-blocking it to the F14 feed that goes to the ashtray, but then thought I'd be better off tapping into the electric aerial feed from the head unit.

So, which colour(s) is the wire on the ISO protocol which control that?

Cheers

If it's an aftermarket ISO block the entenna is normally blue.
