I was wondering would it be easy, hard or near impossible to convert an Infra-red remote control for a car stereo to work on Radio frequency instead of IR? I have seen a RF data transmitter/reciever pair in Dick Smith or Altronics catalogue (can't remember which one). Would it be as simple as replacing the IR LED in the circuit with the transmitter portion of the RF transmitter/reciever and replace the phototransistor in the deck with the reciever portion of the RF transmitter/reciever? Or will I have to make an IR reciever to attach to the RF transmitter and then a IR LED driven by the RF reciever, like an IR remote extender? I would like to do away with the IR altogether. I will worry about how to hide the reciever and make the transmitter at least look acceptable later. Any advice appreciated
