can you still do this if you have the factory sub?

 

Yeah you can, it shouldn't make a difference.

 

Is it possible to connect it to the SAT button instead of hitting the CD button twice?

 

does this adaptor work with the 6-cd changer in 05 tCs?

 

hey, have any off you heard of the iPod Drive+Play?

saw an ad for it in a MotorTrend and figured it might be worth looking at, but i havent heard anythig about it. it looks pretty cool though, it controls the iPod with a little remote thing that has the same layout of the iPod.

 

I prefer to use I trip for a connection-less use of the Ipod over the radio. No instillation required and will work on any radio.

 

I have a wired subplug installed on my 6 cd changer. Will the PIE work with this plug as well?

 

by the looks of it... yes paul. is there a plug there already? if there is, the set up will look like this deck < PIE Aux-in < sub harness.. thats why there is both a male and a female end.. at least my best guess. . lol

 

Hey there every one, First car I have ever had, First Mod of 3 planned. I have had my car since Dec. 04 and I love it! This was my first mod ever on any car and due to this post, it went off without a hitch!
First I didn't get the TOY03-AUX adapter, I looked at the bottom and got USASpec DF-TOY. It has 2 inputs for about the same price, but you CAN NOT USE AN EXISTING 6 CD CHANGER OR ANY KIND OF AUX DEVICE. Since I got my car stock, I didn't have to worry about this. After installing the USASpec DF-TOY, I made 2 cords, I took two a 12 foot long RCA to RCA cord from radioshak, and cut it in half. I then got two 3.5mm or 1/8th inch Female Chassis Mount connectors.
After I cut the cord in half, I soldered the 1/8th inch connectors by tying the ground leads together and then there should be a diagram that tells you on the chassis mount connector which pins on the back are Ground, Left, Right. OR 1,2,3. Usually 1 would be Left, 2 would be Right, 3 would be Ground, I just plugged in my cord and used my multimeter to determine which was which.
After you make the cords, all you need to do is drill a 1/4 inch hole somewhere in your console where you want to put it. I put mine on each side under the cigarette lighter adapter. You might have to use an exacto knife to clear away some of the shavings.

The 2 input adapter I got

The first one I installed below the cigarette lighter adapter


The left side, had to cut into the wall to make room, simple exacto knife cut


what it looks like from the bottom


Finished product, I circled the two inputs on each side


After the install, i plugged in a 1/8th inch male to 1/8th inch male cord from radioshak into my ipod and worked great! you have to turn your ipod up all the way and the radio to about 35 for a good sound.

Just wanted to Thank Everyone who posted and helped, I hope I can do the same!

 

any recommendations on a shop in south oc where i can have this installed for me?

thanks!

 

Holy cheesecrap resurrection!!! :D

Dude, try and DIY. Learn and save yourself some money.

 

haha...i know the benefits of doing it myself. i'm just prone to breaking things when i try.

 

This mod is pretty much just plug and play, I installed mine so lomng ago I don't even remember how I did it lol. But I use it daily on my 05 tC

 

dctennis thanks for the awesome walkthrough! I did this a few months ago and it works like a charm. Only problem is the radio cover squeeks a bit now when opened but that's probably my fault.

 

these directions worked out awesome and were really east to follow, i had it installed, put back together and working in about 30 minutes.

A couple of things to note, my tc is an 05 but has the SAT option on the stereo so make sure you buy the righ auxiliary input piece with the /s
second thing I found it easier to connect the RCA cables and run them out side the dash before mounting the input device.

I have an iphone, so you need an extra part that fits into the recessed jack, so make sure you purchase that, about $10. I have Belkin and its great sound.

Thanks again!

one more note, when i turn my car off and my iphone was on and plugged into the stereo the speakers make a litte pop noise. is this bad? wondering if its b/c i have my iphone volume all the way up and control the volume mainly through my stereo speakers. seems to sound the best this way.
but im concerned with this little pop when i turn off my car without shutting off the radio or disconnecting my ipod first

 

Its fine mine makes a pop if I disconnect my MP3 while its playing

 

So to connect my Touch, I need to buy
