By far cheapest way to get iPod with factory radio

I bought the Metra iPod Adaptor from Techforless.com for roughly $35-40 shipped (can't remember exact price) a few weeks ago, and now its even cheaper. Install was easy and it came with an iPod mount.

The only problem is that when I connected my iTouch to the unit, the unit wants to control it but is incompatible. It will play my music, but when I go to music on my iTouch I get the "Accessory Connected" message, so I had to unplug my Itouch to change music.

Went and Jailbroke my Itouch today and got the noaccessorysplash app added to the jailbreak. So now I have regained full control of my Itouch and it only recognizes the adaptor as a dock, so I can control my music fully from the Itouch again the way I want.

Total cost for it all was under $40, and I have full control over my iPod with perfect sound, all out of the factory unit.

 

Sweet good toknow

 

do you have the JBL or non JBL stereo?

 

do you have a pic of the mount?

 

Was this the one you got Metra TYIP01
Now its only 20$ :O

 

Khaos---
How did you make out with this unit. Its down to $18...!!!! ($11 for shipping though)
It doesn't say if it work for 3gs.

Do you have any pictures before you installed it or after? The pictures on the site are not the best.

My phone is spirit j'broken btw
thanks

 

would this work with an ipod classic without having to unplugging it everytime?

just ordered one for 20.88 including shipping!! If it doesn't work oh well it was only 20 bucks

 

got it in the mail today and it didn't work...
it says its connected but wont let me press the disc button...i have a ipod classic so i cant jailbreak it

 

Does anyone know if it works with the IPhone?

 

To get the iPod to change from "accessory connected" mode try holding the down arrow on your steering wheel.
It worked with my old Neo adapter.

 

Thread revival, but i just wanted to say i got one of these for 15$ shipped. I received it like 4 days after i ordered it and the install took like less than 30 mins. It works great on my ipod touch 2nd gen, the only thing is doesnt do is charge the battery but thats not a big deal. Just wanted to let people know.

 

it lets you change music from the ipod too?

 

yeah, but its a jailbroken ipod and i used the noaccesorysplash app from cydia.

 

oh ok...i dont want to jailbrake mine yet haha

 

oh, yeah i understand.

 

quick question, i was reading up on these and noticed everyone who has them has a 6 disc changer. i have single disc and does it still work? and whats jbl?

 

and what would be the best unit to pick? cause otherwise im just gonna get a random one lol

 

Just installed mine! Perfect sound quality and I can change the song on the factory selector.. The only problem is that it doesn't charge my ipod... I bought it from techforless for $9.99 worth every penny and more.
