Default If you have the CD changer then you cannot use the Dension

The Dension has to plug into something, and that's currently being used by your CD changer.

THere was a guy on the TT forum that did make a pretty nice switch to change the input between the changer and the iPod.

Default I use it, It will work with all versions of the Symphony head unit

They don't have one for the Nav yet.

Default So is the Audi OEM Ipod Adaptor significantly better than the Dension?...

Will there be any enhanced features -- control of playlists etc. I dont think the Icelink has these.

Default From what I recall reading a while ago, the functionality is the same

But that was late spring and it was going to be available in the summer....

I remember reading something that stated the Audi OEM adapter is a rebranded Denison Icelink with a few extra features. I think it was in one of the articles I read after Apple announced the OEM Audi adapter.

Default Dension's web site claims that it will work with NON-NAV head units

Forget the CD Changer. Once you have your ipod, you'll never need it again.
I have a Dension Icelink in my VW and LOVE IT!! I've never needed the CD changer.
