Ipod Connectivity?

[chrisdoesitbetter]

hey all, just wanting to know if anyone has or knows of a way to connect ipods to cd players without the aux input. i currently run my factory eurovox radio and i connect the ipod in the lil cd jack. any help will do thanks

[holden-4-life]

there is.
weather is a good solution is another thing haha

i was using a FM transmitter that plugs into ur ciggy lighter and transmits what ur ipods playing through the radio.
the sound quality wasnt really there but it was great solution up till i got my new headunit today haha

FM transmitter quality is terrible, sorry

I have a Pioneer headunit with direct iPod control which is awesome.

yeah i know its terrible

i just got alpine ipod control, i F***n love it. sooo awesom

Hey mate, did you get those PMs i sent you about fitting the amp?

Also, youve got a stock head-unit? first thing you wanna do is get rid of that mate....head-units with 3.5mm aux inputs are under $100 these days, true, you have to control the ipod from the ipod itself but beats buying a FM transmitter and having crappy sound.

yeah i got the guide it must of taken you all night!! so if my head unit doesnt have a aux input for a sterio jack i cant play the ipod without gettin a new one

[holdenboy]

Good to hear you got that guide. Didnt take too long at all

Depending on the model of head-unit, if it has a stacker input you can buy adaptors that have 2x RCAs as an input, then all you need is a 2x RCA to 3.5mm adaptor and youre away.....but once again it dosent let you control the ipod from the h/u.

If you want to control it from the h/u, you'll be looking at around $200 minimum i beleive.

ebay is ur friend as well
i just bought a brand new alpine headunit for $150.

[Slippy_Trippy]

yeah around 180 is where direct ipod control starts.

[holden-4-life]

yeah headunit was worth 250

i have the blaunkput single cd unit...is it possible to use an "auxillary input converter" on the back of these???

also, will it affect the controls on the steering wheel?
