AUX jack for stock Headunit (Non IPOD Specific)

[feuerdog]

I did the install myself. It's not hard if your careful.

Yeah, the socket is unoccupied if you don't have sat.

 

[AngryFish]

so does that mean your sat button actually activates the aux jack?

So let me get this straight, if I do have a SAT radio (XM) I can install this adaptor to get my Ipod working, but I loose the SAT? I know I have to use the IPOD to control, but do not care as I miss my Ipod hella lot.

I'm in the same situation as you. but I believe that if you buy the passthrough harness both the sat and ipod will work, just one at a time.

It's on the right side of the screen from the link above.

Whichever adapter you buy Dmclone I will just charge you 18.99 to install it.

 

[Sinjin]

Well I think I will have to purchase...although I do not neccesarlly want to start diggin' behind the dash...but "it is what it is."

Ok, just to clarify.....

I am only sure that this adapter works with the NON-sat/MP3 radio, which has the rear sockets empty.

I don't have an iPod, and this aux input has ONLY an RCA input, not iPod controls, so you'd have to mount/control the iPod seperately.

To activate my adapter I simply push the CD button to cycle between normal CD operation and "CD 99". "CD 99" will display and the letters "EXT." will show in the upper right corner of the display.

The SAT and NAV radios probably have the socket occupied by the SAT control box harness.

I've ben using the one from Enfig for the last 3 months and I tihnk it's the best adapter out there.


I have no interest in Sat radio so it works fine.

I control everything except sound through the Ipod itself.

It sounds excellent. The factory radio cuts out less using this then a CD.

I've got it running through my drivers side glovebox. If i was a little more handy I would have put it in the center console. The good thing about the glovebox is that I can lock it.

Just like the other person said, you just press the CD button twice and it goes over to the Ipod. You can press the CD button again and it will play your CD's.

$69 one

This helps for the install.

Direct wired audio input
Charges the iPod while the radio is on and for 20 minutes after you turn off the radio.
Connects to the CD changer port behind your radio.
Will work with all in-dash CD players and Changers.
Works with ALL Monsoon and non Monsoon radios.
Will not lock out the controls on the iPod.


The biggest reason I like it is because it doesn't require you to use playlists like the others do.
