Car Audio Made Simple

            
             Forget about "the home of the $1 install" because this is a complete how to guide for car audio installation. Installing a car audio system is actually much easier than most people think. It can also be rather enjoyable for the stereo enthusiast. Most any car audio product that is purchased will come with easy to follow directions to help with the installation process.

Lastly there is a red wire which is the positive ignition wire. This wire is connected to a power source that is turned on and off by the ignition; that's why the radio comes on when the car is started. There will be several other wires for connecting the speaker and various other things depending on how fancy the receiver is, but those three are standard.
