Hi all,

Just a quick question. I am going to change the stereo in the S2000 and am keen to get an Alpine so I can keep the dash controls (either by the Modifry or the Alpine DCI apapter as discussed on this site.)

However, I have all my Music on my Creative ZEN Touch MP3 player. A lot of the new stereos have an iPOD Interface which I don

 

Pretty much every car CD player have Aux in/out connections , just get an RCA cable that goes into headphone jack like so:



Then go into the CD player settings and normally theres an option to choose either CD changer or input? Select input and then just plug you MP3 player in and whalla

 

Seems so easy now that you saw it...sorry!! And thanks....

 

Bear in mind that just using an AUX connection won't let you control the device remotely...

 

My Alpine recently installed (9853 I think) comes with an optional lead for 3.5mm jack in - you lead this out the rear of the unit and into the passenger footwell - I then plug it into my iPaq (dash mounted) on which I play MP3s. Lead is easy long enough, and works fine - not too dear I don't think from Car Audio Direct.

 

its voila, not whalla :smiley:

Education comes at a price

 

Doesn't have to be an Alpine for the sake of the dash controls. See the link in my sig for an interface that will work with a range of HUs ...

 

Or check the faq for details on all the interface options

 

That's what I meant to say ...
