iPod dock - what is a good choice and where should
ok, im getting an s2000 soon and i always use my iPod to listen to music in my car, i was just wondering if anyone knows what some good docks would be to use and where i can mount it. i dont like those ones that take up ur cupholder, '00 doesnt have one anyway.
thanx for the install pics. did that come with the holder? cause im looking at the alpine unit right now and i wasn't sure if they came with the dock/cradle. whered u get urs and how does it mount
the Neo Ion doesn't come with a dock, the Dension Ice Link does.
The cradle i am using is the one that came with the ipod, i just cut off and filed down the clip on the back and mounted it on a wedge. sits in nice and tight.
I also routed mine into the glovebox. Here is a pic of the install.
I bought one of those sticky pads that are sold in the iPod accessory area at Best Buy and cut it to fit the spot under the elastic band. I drilled a hole in the back of the glovebox and ran the cable up to the iPod. You can't see the hole since modifry's glovebox organizer hides it.
I like the proclip mount a lot - it mounts to the left of the shifter at about a 30 degree tilt. Very easy to see and operate without being too distracting. I use it with the neo ion. The total setup is a bit pricey for what's basically a couple pieces of plastic and an adapter cable, but worth it.
I like it hidden and out of the way. Alpine makes an adaptor that allows control of the ipod form the radio itself
Here's where I put mine

1st mod- before the adaptor
My version of the amp rack. It bolts down using the Spare tire Bolt. The JL 500/5 fits behind the bold for easy access. I mounted my XM tuner on the bottom side of the rack
