Alpine Headunit works great w/ ipod

Are you able to control the iPod from your Alpine head unit??

No, you cant control the IPOD through the head unit. But, if you wanna get real fancy, call up alpine send your head unit to them and instead of it saying AUX when your using it, you can have then put in 3 options, mine says, Computer, IPOD, and Delphia (for my non alipine XM Radio)

I have been using an Alpine KCA-121B adapter with an Alpine head unit to connect my iPod as an auxiliary device in my car. The adapter plugs into the back of your in-dash CD player and then you need a cable with a 1/8-inch stereo plug at one end for your iPod and two rca jacks on the other end to plug into the adapter. The adapter is about 10 inches long and hangs down under your dash, so you can connect it anywhere you want. You can't control your iPod this way, but you can play anything you want from your iPod and use your stereo controls for volume, etc. Sounds great. Alpine will offer a small unit to connect between the iPod and in-dash stereo beginning this summer that will allow full connectivity and will charge your iPod while you're using it. Not much info available on this and so it's not clear if it will work with existing stereos that have Ai-Net connectivity.
