so someone finally decided to integrate a $30 cord into their head unit. GO ALPINE. so now you dont have to buy some $200 unit to listen to your IPOD on your car stereo.

I saw an ad in a magazine and was jumping for joy.

http://www.alpinefullspeed.com/

go check it out. the cord is even FREE if you buy that head unit on the site. im still trying to figure out what head units this cord is capatible with, so if anyone finds out models if works for let me know. im hoping its just not those 2 new models on the site.

i have an alpine stereo in my car and theres this cord you plug into the back of it and it just plugs into the ipod headphone jack and it was at least a hundred dollars cheaper than that one
i also find it would be a lot easier to just find a song on my ipod than go through the complication that it looks like that stereo has

He probably doesn't have the iPod dock connector one, just a 1/8" headphone jack deal.

what you mean it doesnt fit your car, it plugs into the aftermarket Alpine head unit. its not made to plug into a factory unit.

no, not the cord, the head unit itself. i just got a used 96 pathfinder, with factory system, and was going to buy the whole alpine unit, but on the bestbuy website, it said the unit would not fit. :(

dumb bimbo blond... NO YOU CANT. only thing you can buy from apple are well NOthING. anything you can get is aftermarket and its usually an RF unit for $100 or more, sounds like shit and doesnt work good. or some aftermarket have a cord that goes through sme big box then into the back of the head unit. which also cost $100.

this cord is $30, only a cord and plugs into ur Alpine to ur ipod. why is this so hard to integrate into all head units?
