Sorry for mini hijack Dip, but have same stereo and looking for a 420i for it, few on eBay. What iPod do you have, as understand there's problems with some. Not sure if this is earlier ones, have a 2nd gen touch, don't suppose you know if it'd work??
I've got a 5th Gen - Video - Charges and works perfectly fine
Also used a 6th gen and iPhone 4 and 3G (Both of which do not charge)
Not to sure if it will work.
Straight from the Manual -
About the adapter-compatible iPod
An iPod with a touchwheel or scrollwheel is not compatible with the dock connector, and therefore cannot be connected to the adapter. The adapter does not support software versions prior to iPod Update 2004-04-28.
For supported versions, consult your nearest ALPINE dealer.
