Title: Connecting an ipod
Post by: Keyzer_Soze on 07 October 2007, 20:31:18

Hi all,

Just wondering if it is possible to connect an ipod to a CCRT700 stereo? I strongly dislike cassette type adaptors and I've never really been able to get a good result with the type of adaptor you plug into your ipod and tune into a vacant radio station.

Are there any vacant 3.5mm or co-axial connectors on the back?

Hope someone can help.

You can get a hard wired Fm Modulator which are much better than the poke in your fag lighter ones.

....Or get your soldering iron out and show the rest of us how to do it properly  :D

you can fit the harman kardon drive & play - this uses a wired FM modulator so doesn't transmit outside of the car - but you will still get a bit of hiss on quiet parts of music ... it also comes with a remote display and controller so you can lock the ipod away in the glovebox and it will charge it too  :)

i had a damn good cassette adapter, got lucky on ebay, cos others were crap! my ex's cassette one was crap, as were the numerous ones my brother tried, including argos one, but mine was perfect

now i want a tape player back in my car to use my mp3 player, but i sold the cassette adapter to my brother and i doubt he'll let me have it back!
