    Ipods

    The other day I was thinking it would be kind of cool to have music in my car w/o having to swap cds all the time.

    I don't know nothing about these things, or whats required to use them in a car.

    I am guessing there is something I can buy for my deck that will control an ipod?

    I got a pioneer deh-p860mp or something. I think pioneer makes a controller.

    Anyone use such a setup? My glove box looks like it should be plenty big to fit whatever, I don't want cords running all over.
    No sig for you.

    they have an adapter that transmits a radio frequency. buy that, plug it into your Ipod, then turn your radio to that frequency and there you have it.

        I don't want sounds like shit hax up in my ride y0.

        I was on the pioneer site, looks like they got a box that allows the deck to control it, my deck is on the list of "some abilities may not work" or some shit.

        A quick trip on the bay looks like I could get a 20gig pod for under 100$.

          I use a tape converter in the sho whenever I use my Ipod in it. it cant be any worse then that, and I cant tell that much of a difference.

                I dont want to be the messenger of woe or anything..

                but nothing beats CD quality. Except better CD quality.... Sorry :\
                get a CD changer or a 100-200gb MP3 playing hard drive. Thats about
                the best recomendation i can make.





                P.S.

                come up with all your little new gadgets and do-dads we're talking practicality here.

                  You could alsways get a deck with a USB port and grab a 4gb thumbdrive.

                      I have an alpine deck that I plug my iPod into and it sounds great. Alpine has the built in controller unlike the others so I just needed a $20 cable. But the pioneer does the same thing with the external controller. It is much better then the FM transmitter or the tape adapter.
