lottiefox Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Apologies if this has been covered already somewhere.... Can anyone help with how to link in an Ipod to a Concert CD? Can it be done? Or any other ways that can I listen to hundreds of tunes without changing the darned CDs in the car every night? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikw Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Don't bother with Dension unless you have money to burn and next to no DIY skill. Instead take a look at PaulW's excellent guide here. I've done this myself to my Concert unit, all that remains is the sourcing of a fog light switch to replace the switch currently installed in the glovebox. PM me if you want any tips/hints.

danksy Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 Can also vouch for the Icelink, enables you to skip forward and back, and select next/previous track from your headunit! Also a piece of piss to fit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soapsuds Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 yea - go for the icelink or connects 2 - saves a naff DIY job and you get full control on your HU. I have heard that you need to disable the Euro output restrictor on the iPod so that you dont have to crank the headunit volume up! It is basically a setting that stops the volume to the headphones going over a certain level and makes the output through the headunit a little quiter..... Search google for it..... Its not required, just better i believe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skifly Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 you will find a link i posted on here a while ago if you search the forums to a little app that switches off the eu volume limit on an ipod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikw Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 ...and what if you've decided to be an individual and choose an alternative brand of MP3 player? I bought a Toshiba Gigabeat MEG-F60 (60GB) player because (a) I already have >40GB of music, (b) iPod Photo's 8-10hrs battery life isn't good enough, © the Gigabeat's screen has better contrast and higher res, (d) it's pysically smaller, (e) it's at least £30 cheaper and (f) it isn't an iPod! I thought about the Ice-Link, but decided that it didn't justify buying an iPod. Doing the aux-in mod myself has saved me money on the Ice-Link, saved me money on the iPod and also means that if the other half wants to watch a film while I'm driving she can plug the laptop into the stereo for decent sound.

Chillihead Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 There is a little add on called i-Trip, this sends suprisingly good sound to the head unit via RF, it does however kill the battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
