Xeni Jardin:
Following up on yesterday's post (
Link) about my week-long test drive of BMW's new iPod-integrated
330ci convertible, more in-car audio tech pointers from BoingBoing
readers. Meanwhile, I'm still mopping up drool around the office. That
iPod Beemer was nerd-o-licious.
Michael Morgan says, "One of the better approaches I have seen relies
on using the CD changer inputs that many car stereos have. The simpler
products, such as the one I have, provide RCA audio jacks. Better ones
allow iPod control through the CD changer controls. The sound quality
is better than FM or cassette tape adapters although the integration
of iPod display and control is either poor or absent." Link
Nik Clayton says, "You should try out Dension's IceLink 1.1. This
provides a cradle/dock that you can mount on the dash (damage free).
Just drop the iPod in the dock, and the audio's taken from iPod's dock
connector (far better quality than the headphone socket) and routed to
the stereo, in place of the CD-multichanger. So the steering wheel
controls work for changing tracks, and so on. And, of course, your
iPod's there on the dash, so you can see all the information it
displays. It also works in cars other than BMWs." Link
BoingBoing reader Chris says, "There are two other common solutions;
some car radios now have a front panel auxiliary input. Just get a
'stereo plug to stereo plug' cable, and away you go. The other option
is one of the FM modulators that plugs into the antenna lead. See the
Farenheit EFM-01 or the JVC KS-IF200 - likely found many places but
they re listed at Crutchfield. They are a little trickier to install,
but as long as your car FM radio has an antenna (!) they should work.
Link."
Neil replies to a comment submitted to BoingBoing by reader Becky (
Link). He says, "To follow-up on Becky's problem with iPod
installations in cars without cassette adapters there is actually
another solution. Blitzsafe makes adapters that plug into the CD
changer port that lives in most cars, and converts it to an AUX input
for your car stereo. Then you can run a regular stereo cable to the
front of the car to plug in any device you like (such as an iPod). I
used one to install XM Satellite radio in my BMW. Sadly, it doesn't
look like they have any for Saturn cars yet :( -- Link to Blitzsafe."
Tom Karches says, "A company called
Soundgate (Link) makes a number
of devices that allow iPods to be attached to factory or aftermarket
stereos. Their auxillary input adapters attach to the cd changer plug
on cd changer ready stereos and pass the audio through the changer
input. If you have a changer already, they have a model that plugs in
between the stereo and the changer and provides a switch to select the
changer or the ipod. This does not provide ipod control,
unfortunately. Perhaps something like this would help: Link. I'll probably put the Soundgate
adapter in my minivan. If I decide to equip the honda similarly, I'll
probably go with an inline RF modulator like this or this."
Anthony Hall says, "Although BMW claims
they are the first car manufacturer with integrated iPod support I
actually saw ads for Smart cars shipping with iPod cradles several
months ago... I dunno, perhaps it's considered third party but Smart
was plugging it in the own ads in the UK. Looks liker a much simpler
proposition to me. I agree with you that having the iPod just rolling
around loose in the glove compartment is nuts." Link

King!)
