Default Alpine KTP-445 Power Pack

I have an Alphine ida-x305 with modifry DCI wired. Will this power pack work in conjunction with both products? If so, can somebody give me instructions as to how to wire everything together? Where have you guys mounted the power pack as there's not much room behind the head unit.

Yup -- discussed previously in several threads. I can't give specific instructions but connecting is very straightforward. I put mine in the passenger net.

I put mine behind the panel on the passenger side (where the convertible top unit, etc is)

Mine is hidden under the passenger side dash. It should connect directly between the head unit and the harness. It was a straight plug and play from what I recall. I don't have a DCI so I can't comment on how it connects in conjunction with it, but it should be straightforward. I did notice a difference when I plugged it in as compared to without it.

I understand that the KTP works with the DCI, but I am not sure how they connect with the PnP harness. The KTP has one connection for the factory harness and one to the alpine receiver. Likewise, the PnP has one connection to the factory harness and one to the receiver. I'm not quite sure how the KTP and the PnP connect together. Anyone with this setup that can elaborate?

Yeah I have the pnp harness with DCI too. I'd like to know how everything connects - idax305, DCI PnP harness, power pack.

^Yeah I saw that video but my main question is how the DCI connects to the head unit with the power pack as well (if it changes anything at all).

I looked around and saw that the KTP plugs into the headunit and then you plug the DCI harness in the KTP, and the other end of the DCI harness the the factory harness. It should all connect no problem.
