Well I just spent an hour or so fitting my minidisc player into the 924. In the process, I had to pull out an old Sony CD player that was in there when I bought it. I just had upload this - I removed so much unecessary wiring I began to wonder if I could possibly be missing something incredibly important:

Who the hell would wire up a radio like this?!? They'd used the ignition wire for both switched and constant supply to the radio (despite the fact that a constant wire was available and right next to the switched supply), feeding it through three differently rated fuses in the process and a weird looking black box with a capacitor and a little transformer in it. I guess it's some kinda suppressor but I don't see any reason why I'd need it - there's no radio as there isn't an ariel, so it can't be to help reduce noise and the power feed is a pretty good 12V, it doesn't look to need levelling out at all.
Well at least it kept me occupied and confused as I mercilessly cut it all out, wondering if there was some special reason for needing a 1 amp, 4 amp and 12 amp fuses wired up in series.
