Also has anybody else purchased on of these, is it an AUX connection?

Thanks in advance

Does anybody use this for Ipod connection, or there any better recommendations?

Cheers

It connects via the cd changer connection on the HU. It can be controlled via the stalk controls. The only thing it doesn't do is charge the ipod.

You can use the change cd button (underneath the stalk controls) to change between the first 6 playlists on your pod!

Mine doesn't...and my Ipod is a 4th Gen Nano!

Fair enough that sounds good to me.

So have you got one of these on a cup? Because I don't have a CD changer, sorry if I sound about dim

This plugs in where the CD changer would if you had one. I have this unit and it charges my Nano 3rd gen.

Is that just a plug at the back of the head unit?

So this is just 'plug and play', no wiring involved

basically there is a blue connection (which is the same as the one if you had a CD changer), which connects to a silver box, which has a cable coming from it to the Ipod. There is no splicing of cables or anything, just a connection to the HU, the box and then to the Ipod.

The only messing round you would have to do is if you wanted to locate the cable anywhere.
