What are my options here for my Trans Am WS6?

You can use the headphone jack, but its not an unadulterated line out (ie you can still control volume on the iPod, which is not ideal).

I'm pretty sure most all alpine's (except the very base models) have some type of CD changer controls since ~2000. You will need to know the model number (printed right on the front).

for CDM-XXXX headunits use M-bus connector:

Connect the mini jack to the sik and your all set.

For CDA-XXXX headunits use
ai-net connector:

or

You will need to connect the radioshack mini jack to the sik and then the RCAs to the ai-net adapter.

------------------------

If for some reason you do not have any changer control on your headunit, you can purchase an FM modulator like the N-724 (www.autosound2000.com) and the Mini Jack to RCA (http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?cookie%5Ftest=1&catalog%5Fname=CTLG&product%5Fid=42-2550). You should still be able to seek the frequency out once the iPod is playing, the receiver will think it is a very strong radio station.

Thanks. I am just thinking, the CD jack in my headunit is in the back of the unit (the part unexposed). How in the world would i get the wire from the back to inside the car? Would you have to drill a hole in the dash to run the wire through?
