iPod to HU

[Maz]

What do I need and where can I get it ?, not that clued up on this so thought I would ask

Any help would be great please

 

[tommyboy]

A specialist audio place? Reno garage?

Gotta get mine done at my local Seat soon, they wire a connection round the back of the dash and out again for when I get my ipod. gona set me back about 90 notes iirc

It's generally a little thing that plugs into your CD changer socket isn't it? Sony make one for sony's... I'd imagine Connect2 (or whatever it's called) make it for everything else

Sony one is about £30-40 iirc

halfords . denison ice link same as i have .

which hu you got they may do a link for that hu maybe .

 

[crow]

depends what you want ? new hu? what you gt at presnts theerea lead you can make for 182 that does the jobby!

 

[Maz]

I have a pioneer HU, not sure on the model as I dont have my car at the moment.

Not paying Renault to do it I would rather do without

Best to nip into Halfourds Tim ?

 

[Sarah]

buy an itrip to tune ur ipod into ur radio

 

[Maz]

^ are those the fm things ?

 

[Adam]

i am not sure if your h/u is Ipod compatable maz. if it is tho then you just need the pioneer ipod link like i have

 

[Maz]

^ how will I find out if it is please Adam ?

 

[MT AUDIO]

if it has a changer port buy a pioneer to phono lead then a phono to 3.5mm jack or buy a proper pioneer to ipod lead,the first lead i talk about can be ordered form halfords for 7.99 whereas online is 19.99

changer port will mean you can have ipod lead

 

[Adam]

actually thinking about it, it just needs the cd changer iput on the back. try and find out the model and i will check for you.

 

[Tim]

plug it in . lol .

them ice links are good though maz had no trouble with mine .

 

[Maz]

^ plug what in lol

^^Ok car will be back in about an hour so will have a look then ta

 

[Adam]

this is what you need. http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/product/products_id/4928.html

once you find the model then check on the pioneer website to see if it has the cd changer input.

once you find the model then check on the pioneer website to see if it has the cd changer input.

This is the best option to go for, check that your HU has an IP-BUS first though, will be in the manual. This will give you functionallity to control the ipod through the head unit so the ipod itself can be hidden in the glovebox for example. It will also charge the ipod.

I have one of these with my AVIC HU and works great.

 

[Adam]

^ yeah spot on mate. she doesnt know the model of the unit though yet so until then she wont know lol!

yeah its the cd changer input or IP-Bus as pioneer call it what you need on the back

 

[terribleclio]

yep i've got my cd-ib100 II on order. They should of received stock from pioneer today so get ordering maz Providing your hu has the change port on it.

 

[Maz]

Adam my HU is a pioneer DEH-P6400R

 

[terribleclio]

[MT AUDIO]

[terribleclio]

[Maz]

^ I wouldnt pay the same price as the shop lol just wondering if it was the same, worth a watch

 

[MT AUDIO]

yep or if you aint bothered about your ipod working through the radio and use the ipod for functions then buy these 2 http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/pioneer-ipbus-cable-p-3135.html and http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/value-35mm-auxin-link-p-3694.html
