Just wondering whether anyone has come up with a product like this: It's a head unit with a fold-down screen, but instead of housing a tape slot or cd slot behind it, there's a slot for an iPod. So the headunit uses the usual docking station interface of the iPod to read the tracks from it and display info and play the tracks from it. The screen folds back up and you leave the iPod in there...

I need to connect an external device to my Pioneer HU. I understand that I need the RB-20 adapter. A friend told me that the adapter is very simple, and that I can build it myself. Can anybody send me the diagram? Or a link to the diagram? That diagram is mentioned a few times on this and other forums, but the links are pointing to pages that are not available any more... Thanks.

I've just bought a Sony XT-100 DAB receiver second-hand but it didn't come with a power lead. Only two connections are required (ground and 12V) to the 5-pin connector. I've taken the lid off and all 5 pins have connections to them, so I can't deduce which ones to use. Can anyone tell me which pins on this are ground and 12V (I will be finding out on Monday how much a lead will be but I could...

Hi everyone. Sorry that my first post to this group is so trivial and is probably a bit off topic for a technical arena but I couldnt find a FAQ. I own an old (K) registration Vauxhaul Astra and need to remove the existing stereo. Can anyone who has undertaken this feat help me out or point me to a site where I may take instruction. Also, is it possible to keep the dashboard mounted display...

Replaced my old Philips radio/cassette recently with a Kenwood MP3 head unit and all works fine, except:- Now when you enter the car and plug in the removable fascia, the clock(set to auto set from RDS) invariably shows the wrong time, sometimes up to a few hours out. It usually corrects itself after anywhere from 1-30 minutes. The old unit didn't have this problem, but then again the...

Hi, My Sony CDX-5000CD head unit cuts out when I turn the volume up high (it gets about half way up the scale when it does it). As far as I can see everything is connected securely. The power output of the unit is 4x50 & I have pioneer speakers in the front & sony speakers in the back that should more than happily take this power output. My earth runs through the radio aerial rather than...
