I am trying to get rid of leather wrinkles from my car, how do I use this if this is a wired unit?

Extension cord . . . . is there an alternative? I suppose you could get a generator out there.....

I don't know if heat will remove wrinkles from leather, but you'll have to get an extension cord that's long enough to reach the nearest electrical outlet.

You don't. Heat from heat gun may significantly accelerate the appearance of small, permanent cracks if you're not very careful, and this "fix" is very temporary. What you actually should do is use a good leather moisturizer/conditioner (after carefully cleaning it first), like Leatherique and others, or better yet - just let the GOOD professional detailing shop do what's necessary.

Seems a problem of logistics; an extension cord from a nearby outlet would probably be best, as I doubt a 12V outlet in your car could supply enough power for this to function properly.

Bend back the blue wire, if you don't need ac and tape it to the other cable or sleeve it with split conduit(wallmart), this should keep it looking clean

My suggestion to you is to do what we did - take your vehicle and have someone put a remote on it and throW that piece of junk away. We attempted to put it on our car and had the same problem. The directions are made that nO human can understand them. We even took the directions to see what we were missing to a friend that knowS a lot about wiring and vehicles, and he could not tell head nor tails of it. We had one installed one ours for right at a $100.00 and it works great. THROW IT AWAY !!!

I would not recommend mink oil because it tends to soften leather. You might be better off using a leather reconditioning cream. I have used the one made by Lexol with good results in both my car and on a leather couch. It penetrates the leather. You let it absorb and then buff it with a clean, lint-free cloth.

It's a long shot but try the Maxell CD Lens cleaner. It brought my car's player back from the dead. And it's less than $10!

The best way is to build a wooden crate for it, complete with lid, to haul it around. I have had to do similar things for cast-iron equipment. Once you build/reinforce the crate, spray lacquer into it to seal the seams and prevent any residual grease from escaping into your car.

I have a Lexus LS with real leather ash interior. It does absolutely NOTHING. Perhaps the leather conditioner refreshers the leather, but the leather cleaner is useless. I would recommend staying away from this product if your car has light color real leather interior. I can't comment on synthetic type leathers.

Look for the plug on the passenger side by the firewall/fender. The plug isn't very long, it is possible that the wires are wrapped around other wires. Good luck.

Very simple, remove plastic tab in back which allows battery to work once removed. Pick a spot where you like to put in your vehicle once selected there will be a velcro strip. Peel back layer off it and stick where you want the unit placed. I suggest running external wire to outside of car before sticking to velcro. Once wire is ran properly to outside of car you are now ready to use your product :) enjoy!

I used it on my Lincoln with perforated black leather & it was OK. The leather looked really good after this stuff. I used only a very small amount of the cleaner and the conditioner and didn't load the stuff on there. I believe the conditioner was thicker so use a small amount on the applicator and rub it onto the leather. I wouldn't put it directly on the seats.

I didn't buy this.After researching and talking to body shops, i ended up buying the Porter Cable.What i do is apply the wax with it, then wipe most of it off with a towel, then use it to buff. Belive me , you wont be sorry.

Just use a piece of speaker wire. Attach it to the red wire off the supply box(remote box) and run it under the door seams then under the front fender( you mite need a coat hanger). And then just attach it to your battery terminal. Hope this helps :)

You can use it in a car, boat, or what ever has wire. There are alligator clips to use with a raw wires in a car. Disconnect the car battery first before using the device. There is a speaker in the receiver and a set of ear buds is also provided. Its a very good set for occasional use. I couldn't believe the price. I had a more expensive Ethernet "toner" at my job but it did the same thing. I used it to trace out my house wiring.

The cord has a cigarette lighter plug on one end. So you would have to cut it off and sort the wires out and go from their.

I wouldn't use this on car leather. The bristles are hard plastic. I suspect this would ruin the leather.

I have leather seats in my car, so I'm not sure. I know it works GREAT on my furniture. Much better than the gadget by Pledge.
