Bought my iS lil while ago which came with an after market CD but when it came to try and fit my power cable for it is missing I can't find it anywhere! Im wondering whether the clown before me yanked it out so hard he ripped it with him or its trapped somewhere behind the dash anyone got any suggestions as im stumped with this. Spent absolutley ages looking for the lil F*****

Is it just the power cable or the whole stereo loom? I just bought a touring that has no stereo loom, very frustrating! if you're just missing the power cable, run a lead straight from the battery but make sure to fuse it with a 30 amp fuse. You may also need an ignition feed too is this is not present.

yer its just the power cable which is missing. The stereo loom is visable with several connections hanging out just not the flaming power cable

is it fairly straight forward to run a lead from the battery to the stereo and get it going properly again?

run a cable from the correct accesorie panel under the glove box

failing that i have a brand new unused stereo loom somewhere about the place
or they can bought for about 20quid online got it for my tech 1 but never got round to changing it before i sold it

Where can you buy the stereo loom from? I assume this would be one that plugs into the accessories socket behind the glovebox? Linky please
