Okay I searched and saw some people used a Metra adapter, but I don't believe it was the same one I'm seeing at Circuit City

It seems a lot like the iPod2Go/neo/PAC aux box....

Just wondering if it requires you to have predetermined playlists, etc....and if anyone else has ever used this device. I was going to get it because it's actually $50 off this week at Circuit City online ($99)...

Thanks!

EDIT: Guess it would be nice if I made think right...

 

Link is working...

 

Excellent find! I was about to spend about 150 on that over on ebay!

Just bought it online and picking it up on the way home...will tell you how it is once I install it...if I can do it properly.

when you use the TYIP-01 your radio will see your Ipod more as a cd changer than an Ipod. lets say 5 playlists, when it comes up on the scion radio you will see 1-1, or all songs starting track 1. 1 is all songs reguardless of playlists. 2-1 would be the first playlist starting with track one, 3-1 would be the second and so on. it takes a while to get used to the idea.
no ipod info will be shown on the radio, the Ipod acts like a cd changer. and there is no info on the Ipod when it is plugged in, it says "Axxess" on the screen. it does charge while it's pluggen in though. personally, I would keep it on playlist 1 (all songs playlist) and turn random on.

 

That sucks...I guess I'm still stuck getting the ipod2go one then...I don't want to be stuck to listening to playlists all the time...Thanks for the info.

 

Oh, hearing that makes me sad for buying it...will the ipod2car behave differently? I guess I can get Circuit City to take this back....

 

I'm still new to the Ipod thing, but I have playlists seperated by music genre. playlist for Jazz, Rock, Old School. do alot of you just use 1 playlist and throw all your songs in it? I thought the playlist would make it easier to find songs.

 

I have a few playlists, but I don't always use them...I have them for like the Gym or for a few groups (songs I like)...but that's it.

For the most part I just scroll to whatever I want to hear...

 

Don't know too much about the ipod2car, but what I've read from other websites, it seems like a great product and something that I'll be getting in the very near future.

...just gotta get a new ipod first...

Anyway, it's actually on sale right now at theistore.com. From $229 to $189. Here's the link.
