Alpine In-dash

Just about to install this into my ride. I see theres 2 wires. One says Parking brake, and the other says Foot brake.... To have the screen play while my handbrake is down do I ground off both? or just the parking brake?

On the Alpine dvd players you can't just ground parking break wire and expect it to work while driving (which is illegal btw).
Anyhow the easiest way to get it to work is by buying a "blackbox" which you hookup the wires to and it will preform the sequence for you and voila.
Or install a couple of switches involving both wries and DIY, but that can get complicated if you don't know what you're doing.

Anyhow, the most common model is the pac 7, something like this can be found on ebay
