My OFF-ROAD POPUP has the car stereo unit in it. The JENSEN Car Radio front-back fade setup is for stereo speakers inside the POPUP and outside the POPUP. Thats pretty neat having Stereo speakers on the patio side outside wall under the awning. It has weather proof speakers on the outside...
I did another mod to the wiring of the CAR RADIO unit. As you are probably aware it will have the 12VDC lead as well as an IGNITION 12VDC wire to hook up. I used a RADIO SHACK Lever Slide Switch for the hot ignition lead 12VDC wire. This way I can leave the radio turned on and use the slide switch like when you turn the key ignition ON and OFF. This saves your radio PUSH BUTTON channel selections so you don't have to go setup all the channels again everytime you turn it on. You can see the lever switch to the right of the radio here.
When i pack up for transport I will turn the radio off with its ON-OFF switch but after we setup at the camp ground then I use the ignition Lever switch to turn it on and off.
