Very simple wiring question
Help me! I have quite literally been searching for the last 2 days for this info...
I am trying to install a car kit (Nokia CK-7w) into my pre-facelift 04 W203.
Where do I plug the wires into? I understand the yellow cable is for mute, which gets wired into the stereo plug in the relevant place, and have a diagram for that.
The problem is I dont know where is the best place (or how) to hook up the live, switched ignition and ground, nor the technique to do so. I understand that these wires will be coming from the stereo, can I connect it to these?
Can anyone help?? I had found a thread about installing a Moto bt kit, with all pics, but unfortunately the pics dont seem to be online anymore.
Thanks in advance!! (Sorry for crosspost from W203 forum - hopefully I'll find someone who can help)

Could find switched and continuous power from several places but one option at least is to use the cigarette lighter for switched and the head unit power line for the continuous power for the car kit. These kits usually work with switched power only as well.
