Hey guys .. just thinking it might be easier than all the adapter
with head unit that already have aux port ready to hook the ipod to


can anyone recommend good one ?
i'm a big fan of the flip open type of cd player
as of right now i'm using m600 sony

and i'm prefer the RCA aux one the back of the unit
than those aiwa with the aux jack in front of the unit
just for the cleaner look

what do you mean by flip...i have a pioneer deh-8400mp and all you need is to buy a cable which is like 40 bucks, expensive unit, you might be able to find them cheaper on ebay, it is about 2 models back i think now. I love my head unit, but by flip what do you mean?

I just had an Alpine CDA-9833 installed and I love it! Until they come out with the iPod box so I can control it from the head unit I have it connected through the AI Net interface. That works pretty slick.

Just bought a Dual 6210 AM/FM CD/MP3 head unit with rear aux in. Detachable face and wireless remote.

Since the Alpines are delayed, decided to go ahead. Crutchfield had a $20 off $100 link and free shipping. The HU was only $99.99 to start with. Bought a few feet of wire to get to $100 (actually only needed another $.01 but...) and got it shipped for a grand total of $81.39!

Came with 2 factory wiring harness interface connectors and a small compartment since I had a double DIN factory HU. Retains all the factory speakers/fader/balance, etc. without any headaches.

I also tapped 12vdc direct from the harness to a female FW connector. No problems for those interested. Dock cable plugs right in. Line out from an installed dock feeds the HU. What a difference in sound quality from the FM limited frequency range of the modulator. iPod sounds as good as the CD now.

well i just got this one

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=1069300179188&skuId=6228655&type=product&productCategoryId=cat03066

and this one has an rca in the back, it works really good. It also has two other pre-outs just in case you want to put in subs or speakers.
