Ipod Hook up help?
I have a 06 C6 with 2lt interior and a non Bose, base cd player. that is not SAT Ready or have the option to toggle to Aux even though i have the CC/AUX button. I am looking to hook up my Iphone to charge and play music through a USA Spec 11 or Peripheral type set up but have not been able to find one that works with my specific basic factory audio.
Anybody out there that has found a solution the help would be much appreciated.
thanx
Neil

I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think you're going to find anything for that radio, sorry.
However, the FM modulators that are hard wired to the antenna input behind the radio (like this one) actually sound OK. You'd also have to buy the antenna adapters (check out 'also purchased' links at bottom of my link).
As far as charging the ipod, it wouldn't be too hard to rig up a standard car charger that only turns on when the radio is playing.
It may not be as easy to install or function as nice as the plug-n-play modules, but it CAN be done if you really want to.
