I have connected my mini ipod using Dension ice>Link iPod Car Kit with out any problems.

The ipod is mounted where the ash tray used to be. The link is through the CD port allowing the HU to control the ipod as if it were the CD multichanger.

Features:

Power on/off remote when HU selects CD

Charges ipod

Track skip/search

Does not display track/playlist info on HU only on ipod

see:

Note:

For Delta HU use quoted 'Post-1997 Passat with “Delta 6”' hook-up

I'm too tight to buy the denison kit, I was using an Itrip fm transmitter but they're pretty poor. Then recently got one of these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=75523&item=5756820313&rd=1

and it's amazing how good it is for 2 snots compared to an itrip. I figured for 2 quid it was worth a try compared to the itrip, and I've never used the itrip since.

I have an itrip too, they're not strictly speaking legal in the Uk, but erm anyway they're not brilliant either. It uses the pods battery up quicker as well.

I've found the plugin transmitter that plugs into my cigarette lighter and into the earphone socket of the ipod works better.
