Ipod Wired Connection in XK*
Hi,
I have a 2004 XKR cabriolet with a TAPE CASSETE slap in the middle.
I REALLY need to find a way to either connect an Ipod via the multichanger rear input or start from scratch!
If us XK owners had a 9000 system, we could do this easily apparently
and gain all ipod controls from our steering wheel controls along with track info etc on the radio lcd.
The best solution I have found so far for the radios in our XK's is an FM Modulator....... With an FM Mod we can only control the tracks from the ipod itself, so would require an ugly bracket on the console....
Does anyone else have any better ideas or know of any new products upcoming? HELP!
I don't want to rip out my console and have to start again..
any ideas..?
Also , what is a Premium Sound system, which I apparently have..?
Is it just the number of speakers fitted?.....

Take a look at the Harman Kardon Drive and Play. It hid nicely inside the dash, and I hooked the output up to a $10 cassette adaptor.
The controller is wireless and I glued it to the center console. I think there are photos in my gallery. It gives me complete control of my IPOD, plus great sound quality.
