Starlet__SR Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 The remote is for a column mounted control, nothing else, your ipod will either need an aux in port, or usb compatibility that will run an ipod,Day Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Best thing to do is type in your model number and fetch up the specs of your unitDay Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LukeSR Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 You can't just shove an aux cable and expect it to work Remote is for when your using an amp, well I'm pretty sure it is as i remember when i put a sub an amp into my car. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
james@cjperformance Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 just get an auxilary cable with ipod connection from halfrauds think they are about 12 quid plug it in the back and mount the ipod on the dash.only problem with doing it this way is you need to skip songs on the ipod rather than the head unit itself.
