Default Quick Question...

Hey this is a quick question, Does it matter when you shut down the car that the A/C and Headunit should be off. I heard if its not than they get damaged? is that true? any advice will be appreciated! thanks!

It is perfectly safe to leave them on. I've never turned-off my accessories on any of my cars (seven, so far), except if I had a weak battery and was having trouble starting the car. Modern automotive electronics are designed for harsh conditions.

If you do have a problem, it's a design flaw.

No. And you probably shouldn't listen to the source of that info again.

No.

The head unit has one power feed. Doesn't matter how or where the power is cut.
