Default IPOD Solution for C5

What do you like to hook up your IPOD? I have to stock Bose system in an 2001.

Thanks

Do a search for iPod2car

Many have used this module but there are also mods to the wiring inside the head unit to get another Aux input as well as mods to get up to three additional Aux inputs along with what you already have

My car doesn't have a changer so I used an IPOD2Car PXDP with the PXHGM4 cable. I picked it up on the auction site for about $100. I referred to the write up from forum member Toque. It is a great mod! Good luck!

IPOD to car with the stock BOSE, but mine is upgraded to Boston Acoustics speakers. What a difference

There is a guy on eBay that has them at a bargain price. He did not have the right harness for my set up and he gave me nice discount so I could buy it elsewhere.

I believe so. All the iPhone's and iPod's have the same connections so it shouldn't matter which one you use.

Default iPOD2Car complete?

Does the iPOD2Car have ALL cables/connectors necessary? I was looking at TOQUE's nice pics of install, and I have the same OEM single CD play in dash unit in my 2001 Z06. But 1 of the cables he uses in his install is GMH20TC, and apparently this is no longer available!!

So, does the iPOD2Car do the same thing and have ALL the necessary cables and stuff in 1 package?

Also I assume that install of either system does away with the CD. Is this correct? I'd kinda like to keep the CD player since I sometimes like to listen to books or other CD media that I don't want to put on my Ipod, but assume this isn't possible.

Please let me know my options and educate me.

Many thanks, bma2
