If you do it right with the components you want to use, it would be expensive, but the big picture is that it will look like a freak and really ghetto. Save your money and get a a boombox that accepts inputs from the output of your mp3 player. |

New member Username: TonyaPost Number: 3 Registered: Aug-06 | Ok i just want to get the speakers to work somehow, for the heck of it, and my friend has a car amp that i can use, now it will work with the speakers, but i don't know how to get the power for it. (it has 1.power wire_ 2.remote wire_ 3.Ground wire) So how can i get the 12V without using a car battery. |

New member Username: TonyaPost Number: 4 Registered: Aug-06 | To: Christopher I have heard about that method, and i want to try it, i can get a power supply, and i found out that i have to attach the yellow wires to the power line and the black wires to the ground. Is that the way you did it, and if you could send me some pictures of your system, that would be great. My email is t_askar@msn.com Thanks a lot. |
