Default I just got an iPod for a graduation present... and was wondering

if there was some way that I could hardwire it into my stock bose head unit... or if I was stuck just using the tape adaptor....

Thanks for the help

Default Check out the iTrip at www.griffintechnology.com

Though this is only for the old iPod, not the recently-released ones.<ul><li><a href="http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/itrip/">http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/itrip/</a</li></ul>

Default check here, also

here- this is a custom adapter for the stock system (but only if you have a cd changer) also- itrip does not work with the new style iPods... just the old ones<ul><li><a href="http://jbipes.home.attbi.com/ttr/auxin4.html%20">http://jbipes.home.attbi.com/ttr/auxin4.html%20</a></li></ul>

Default cool... unfortunately you're right... it will only work with the old ones...

cuz they did some major shrinking to this thing so it's less than a half inch thick so the plug on top is now smaller and not a regular fire wire plug...

hopefully in a lil while they'll get it adapted to the new iPod.

thanks,

Default there is also the iRock. cheap FM modulator not hard wired (link)

can get them pretty cheap on ebay. i think they go for ~$30! the reviewer here looks like they have the system hooked up to an audi oem head.<ul><li><a href="http://www.the-gadgeteer.com/irock-review.html">iRock</a></li></ul>

Default of course... mine is hardwired into the CDC inputs and power hardwired to the fuse box.
