I-pod compatible?

Post by paulito1 » Sun Jun 17, 2007 11:46 pm

Hi to everyone!

Someone can tell me if there is any device that we can use to conect a I-pod to the original cd player?
Please tell where i can get it.

Thanks for the help.

Not as far as i know. You can either use an FM modulator or buy a Phatbox (which i think is excellent) to replace the CD changer.

I think there is also a link which replaces the CD stack, so you have one or other according to my local dealer.

As Simon suggests there is a bit of kit available from your dealer around £85 ish. It plugs into the back of the head unit where the CD changer goes in. You then locate the i-pod in the glove box
To navigate the i-pod you have to put the tracks into 6 playlists and use those. You dont get the track info on the dis or the head unit.

Works ok for me.

I have a Dension Icelink. Sounds similar to what Philip has, but as well as using the head unit, you can also navigate using the ipod controls, so I don't bother with playlists and stuff.
