sooo... I was wondering, since I don't really care about replacing my head unit... is the only way to have an audio in jack to use the PIE adaptor thing? Is there no... cheaper alternative? I don;t have nor will I plan to get sat radio... is there a way I can route imputs there? I didn't want to take apart everything just to take a look.. just wondering if it can be done or am i pretty much stuck with an FM modulator (or saving up for the pie adaptor).

 

FM modulators are $30.. be done with it lol

 

you forgot to mention they sound like ____?

 

Second that its a waste of money. The preset EQ curves on the factory deck make it impossible to work with on top of buzzing, hissing and engine whine.

 

if you want it to sound nice, prepare to spend the $$ then lol

 

The PIE adapters are expensive? They're only like $70, less than $90 once you get the RCA to headphone jack. Heck, that's as much as the floormats, and I got those CHEAP through an aftermarket site.

 

if you're looking for a PIE toy03aux adapter, i have one for sale -- $75 shipped. PM for paypal info.

 

i was using an fm modulator...my skyfi2 came with a built in one...i couldn't even listen to the skyfi for the week that i had it like that. i tried a wired fm modulator...wow, that sucked.

i bit the bullet and put up the money for the PIE...i would suggest it highly. it is terrific...awesome quality, as good as a cd. it was a snap to install it...it took me longer to ziptie it to a wire bundle that it did to install it, theres no splicing or running power wires. it also has an adapter on it so you can add a cd changer if you want to down the road.
i love the pie, i can hook up my skyfi2, my friend can bring his ipod...you can hook up anything with a headphone jack when you get an rca to headphone cord, like $5 from radiosack.
just set aside a little money each week and get it
