There should be a blue wire coming from your cd player, that you connect it to.

blue wire on the back of the aftermarket radio or an ACC wire on the ignition harness will work just fine

Or he could do the fuse trick, run a wire from one of the radio fuses legs to the remote spot on your amp, and it will turn it on for you with the radio.

same thing as the ACC, but what dusty said might be a little easier if you don't feel like tearing into your ignition harness and testing wires.

for the money, they're not bad at all. i would look into a good digital multi meter, because if you poke a test light into the wrong wire (ex. ECM or factory security), the added current draw can immediatley fry the hardware.
