I have a CD player with a Dimmer feature on it. The thing is I don't have a dimmer wire for my car. Do you have to hook that to a dimmer wire for that feature to work or could you hook it to another power wire source? Actually what is the dimmer feature for anyways.

if there's no dimmer wire in the car just leave the wire unconnected on teh radio.
dimmer dims the head unit display when your headlights are on.
that's all.

Oh yeah one more question...what is the illumination wire for? This particular unit has illumination feature and my car has the wire for it. I just have no idea what it is for...is it used to make the unit's face to light up?

pretty much.. that or illum. is to dim the face when the lights are on, and dimmer is used to vary the dimming effect. really depends on teh unit.
