I'm confused now since my DCI currently controls my outdated Sony Headunit...i can skip tracks, fast forward them from my audio button, etc....will i lose this if I buy an Alpine ida-x305 or cda-105 and use the modifry harness?

I barely bought my s2000 so I'm not sure how my DCI was previously connected to the headunit....

THIS IS AN EMERGENCY I NEED MY IPOD HOOKED UP TO MY HEADUNIT ASAP!!!?!?! =O

 

The Modifry DCI is specific to a brand/brands of head unit, in your case you have a Sony DCI unit which will not control an Alpine head unit.

I do have an Alpine wired DCI that I'd be willing to trade you for your Sony, since I have a Sony head unit I've been itching to install. My Alpine one worked great for the X305S that I have presently.

As for the Qube controls, that's an entirely different setup, and I think its currently unavailable. If Qube sells more, let me know because that's the one I really want. It alters your "Mode" knob to be 4-way multidirectional, which is alot more intuitive when you're changing tracks and such. In order to change tracks on my DCI I have to press & hold the Mode button while hitting Volume Up to go to the next track. For the Qube unit, just flick the Mode button to the right for next track.

 

in the worst case get new apropriate Modifry adaptor.
it costs few bucks but it works flawlessly.

 

Do you have the newer (I don't know when the change was made, but mine was bought in '07) DCI with a dip-switch for "tap-n-press"? If engaged, then your mode button becomes track advance with a short tap.
