Help with C33/ipod

[whitewatermd]

All,

I got a C33 from an E36 from a car at the junkyard over the weekend and got it all wired up yesterday. My question is do I need the CD Changer cable to hook up a iPod adapter or can i plug the iPod adapter right into the back of the headunit where the CD Changer plug would go?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Good question...I have been all over researching this from top to bottom on hook up to an IPOD as an auxiliary input....lots of how-to's using Googgle....

You need the CD changer cables. All the iPod adapters plug into the CD changer cable and mimic the changer. There are two cables that run to the trunk, you're going to need them both. One is just a three wire that supplies power and ground. The other is a cable for the changer itself.
