Does anyone know where I can get a audio switcher for RCA cables?
Also, I am trying to relocate my aftermarket deck which has a remote, is there anyway to relay the remote signal to wherever it is?

Do you mean a speaker output to RCA adaptor? I'm not quite sure what you are looking for, could you explain a little more?

When you say audio switcher, do you mean like an A/B switch like this one?:

You can get those at Radio Shack.
As for the remote signal, you may try relocating your remote sensor using a fiber optic cable. You may be able to get some cabling used for computer networking and fab something.

There are a couple of scenarios. Are wanting to switch your audio rca cables? or do you want to use your remote control to operate an otherwise concealed head unit?
If you want to switch your audio RCAs, your could use Sony's audio selector. I believe it is model number XA-37. I bought one 5 years ago, I don't know if they are even made anymore. This is a great unit if you are wanting to run 2 headunits. If both units are on, then the DEFAULT deck (usually your Primary deck) plays. If the Primary deck is turned off, then the other deck plays. Great for keeping your stock deck and putting an aftermarket deck in the glove box.
2. If you are wanting to move your deck to the glove box, but you still want to use your remote, you will have to do some custom work. Basically, you will need to tap into the remote receiver in the deck. Put the new receiver (eye) anywhere you want it. Now when you use your remote control, point it to the new EYE, not the deck.
Hope this helps.

Hi, yes, I want a RCA switcher to switch audio signal between two head units.
Also I am going to relocate a head unit to the trunk
I was wondering that I can remove the "eye" from the deck and extend it 10 ft by WIRES and still work? Have you done it before?
Thanks alot for the help so far
