Apple I-pod installation
I have a 2001 convert with am-fm cd head unit and 12 disc cd changer. I'm interested in modifying to add an aux input to plug I-pod into.
Anyone ever do themselves or know of a kit? Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Apple I-pod installation (DirtyRed)
the only way for you to use your ipod with the stoch head unit is to go through you cd changer harness, there is a forum member that sells the adapter you need, creat a post in parts f/s and they will respond. the only other way is through an FM modulator, which sucks, horrible sound qulity.

The FM modulator really does suck. I tried out mine for the first & last time today.

I-pod up and running
Well it took awhile but I got it done thanks to all the info I rec'd on the forum. I got the AUX-10 and it really plug and play. Just unhooked the CD changer and plugged it into the factory harness 
.
Only problem is I just found out PAC has an I-pod specific adaptor that allows controll from the head unit (just came out) . Guess I'll have to upgrade

It looks pretty cool, just need to find an online retailer and a price. Wonder if this can be used with an auxillary splitter so you can have the iPOD and cd changer.
