Gioseppe Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 yeah, browse my ipod with no titles showing and going 1 at a time through 5300 songs (24GB of music) I know, I thought of that, but the ones that you can control through the deck just arent well done right now. Maybe in some time they'll get a better solutionwell, if you're asking to use the stock sc-XX radio and have the titles show, that stuff aint gonna happen man.and it doesn't have to be one at a time through all of it. set up multiple playlists and skip 10 at a time if you want.actually, you don't even need to do that. there are two modes to the usa-spec one. one where you control what is played through the ipod FROM the ipod, just selecting which playlist to go from, almost exactly the same as throwing a cd into the deck.the other is completly controlled through the deck as i assumed.

Greenchunks Posted May 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Meh, more options than I need, it'll be just dandy with the blitzsafe and simple too. Now I gotta figure out which subs to use for an infinite baffle mounting of some 8"s in the rear deck.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Mendoza Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 I am no Ipod guru. My question is are all Ipods the same in the sense that the charger port size is the same on all of them?Because I don't want to get the adapter and the cord not fit in the bottom of my Ipod.No, it needs to have a dock connector on the bottom for it to work with the Blitzsafe adapter. Unless you want to use RCA cables from a Y-Adapter on the headphone jack. If I remember, the first and second generation iPods don't have a dock connector, where the rest (starting with the click wheel version?) do.

Greenchunks Posted May 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 quick question, I lost the link that crazykn sent me telling me which wire is the 12V power on the back of the deck. Can anyone fill me in which line I tap into for power? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfrodriguez78 Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Hey!!Check out www.ipdusa.com !!!!!!!!!!!They have developed a device that interfaces directly with the stock radio. You can then control your IPOD with the CD Changer controls on your stock stereo. It is pretty cool. Let me know what you think!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, USASpec makes the exact same thing and you can find it for 110-130$, thats 60-80$ less than ipd. I'm fine with controlling it though the ipod, although it would be nice after using this to control through the deck. Gimme a few mins I'll post a write-up.

Jesus Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 For the love of god, read the entire thread first, its not that long! I use the blitzsafe adapter with dock connector and it works pretty well. I can't see how using the decks controls to navigate through music can be any nicer than Apple's interface. With the dock connector the iPod is always charging and automatically pauses when you turn off the ignition. As far as install aesthetics go, I removed the ashtray from under the HU, pulled the adapter cable through, and replaced the ashtray. Pretty pleased.

Greenchunks Posted May 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Doesnt the ipod fly around like that? I thinking about running it through the center console out into the armrest. I know apple interface is better, but its easier to reach the headunit and adjust from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connorb850 Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 I just put my ipod on the passenger seat when I'm using it, or in my lap when someone is in the passenger seat. This way I can easily go to the next song or artist, instead of having to open the armrest while driving. I have the cable tucked up between the console and carpet on the passenger side. When I'm not in the car, I put the end of the cable in between the seat and the ipod in the console so it is hidden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
