I recently purchased a homelink module from a salvage yard for my 97 Disco. I quickly realized that my Disco was not pre-wired for the homelink system. Does anyone know how to hook one of these thinks up?

you can just attach a 9v battery to the wires and it will work, or just run some new wires up there fromt the fuse box. All it needs is a power source.

I think the '97 is like my '96. The power comes from around the dome light. That way it can be used even when the key is off.

yeah before you do a homemade hack job make SURE it isn't pre-wired. The little plug is probablly stuck up behind the headliner somewhere, pull the dome light and you will be able to see/feel around up there easier.
