jules12 Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Apologies if this has been posted many times before but how can i get a wired connection with the CDC in the armrest. I don't mind spending some money and wouldn't mind sat nav as well. Ideally I would like a OEM unit but if that is not an option than 3rd paty is fine. Also anyone recomend any fitters in the Brentwood area ? Would appreciate any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pany Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 I looked at the oem, however ipod control is very limited. You can get 5 tracklists that show up, as cd 1-5 on the head unit, but only move forward through the tracks 1 at a time. Also you don't get any track info. I picked the harmon kardon plug and drive. This gives you a jog dial that mimics the ipod wheel, and a small display that lets you see all the ipod information. I put the display in the ashtray gap, hard to see from outside, but clearly visible. Available from halfords for £80 fitted. It wires into the arial feed. so is far better than a wireless version, or you can use a connect2 to input it via the cd changer control. It does inprove the sound.

jules12 Posted September 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 I really want a wired solution, the conect2 states that the cd chnager cannot be used with it Any other ideas? I read on one of these threads there was a lead on ebay, but all the links are too old. Anyone know if this lead works with the CDC ?

Sealy Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 For £179 you may as well pay the extra £10 and get the VW one thats fits in the armrest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
