Please Help. I am confused
First let me say, I 'm sorry, but I have not been able to digest this entire thread.
I have a 1999 Coupe without the rear multi-changer, but have the CD in the head unit.
I would like to add IPOD capability.
Is all that I need the PXHGM4 and IPOD2CAR?
What is the AUX2CAR?
More importantly, where is the best source for these items?
Cardomain or discountcarstereo.
Thanks for the help.

You may be able to shop around and find a better deal.

I have a 99, which did not originally have the cd changer wire. I added that wire and a cd changer a couple of years back and now have the pxhgm2 and ipod2car. Would there be any benefit to using the pxhgm4 instead? I cannot control the ipod from the h/u consistently. Forward works OK, back hardly ever works.

I think it would be worth a try though.
If you decide to give it a shot, please let us know.

We actually have found that the controls are more consistent if the module is installed behind the radio with a PXHGM4 cable.

Guess I'm gonna order one and give it a try.

So, it's not perfect. Sometimes I advanced up to 16 songs, other times, it recycles after 2-3. But control through the iPod takes care of that, and, for me, it seems a better solution than opening up the dash and connecting through the back of the radio.

I have no problem with connecting to the back of the radio. I just don't want to spend $$ and time if it's not going to make a difference. This (inconsistent control from the h/u) is obviously vehicle specific, as my Tacoma set has no problems whatsoever. I ordered the pxhgm4 today, I'll post here how it goes.
