Sorry, I used a link that I set up for another post, here's the one I meant..
//%20l%20[url=http://www.mr2roc.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=5453]viewtopic.php?f=31&t=5453 l [/url]. Is that different to what you've seen?

As I understand it that's what the switch option does. When you play CD's its off, so the aerial doesn't go up. When you play the radio its on, so it does. The only point is that its up to you to control it. AFAIAA nobody has come up with anything that does it automatically.

yep thats the one thankyou. If im correct i can just snip the remote wire coming out the back of the head unit and put the switch wires into the circuit and 'whala' i have a button to put my ariel up and down.

But it is literllay just a case of cutting the wire at the back of the headunit and using the two exposed wires behind the button to make the circuit pass throught the button. I dont need to find the end of the remote wire and find another part of the circtuit?
