[MARZS] Posted 24, June 2012 Report Share Posted 24, June 2012 Hi all, Hope this is the right section to ask this...so here it goes. Is there anyway that I can use the stock head unit to connect an ipod/iphone to it? Not concerned about not being able to control the ipod/iphone from the head unit. I've had a look on the net and on ebay, but unsure what to do really. All my other cars have had aftermarket head units so they are already set up for a 3.5mm cable or ipod cable. Cheers, Marcel P.S. Sorry for my noob-ness on this, still working out these cool little cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[MARZS] Posted 24, June 2012 Author Report Share Posted 24, June 2012 Sorry, car is a 2007 Megane Sports Cup...I'll look into the Connect 2 adapters Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[MARZS] Posted 25, June 2012 Author Report Share Posted 25, June 2012 Ok, I've looked into the Connects2 adapters and I'm pretty sure I'm going to get one, but I have a few questions... 1) when i connect it up, do I still select the songs on the ipod through the ipod itself or is it able to be used through the head unit? ie, can i use the steering wheel controls to skip songs etc? 2) Do i still need to use a 3.5mm plug to get sound, or is it transmitted through the usb/ipod cable? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffyn Posted 25, June 2012 Report Share Posted 25, June 2012 Depends which unit you buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubbsy Posted 25, June 2012 Report Share Posted 25, June 2012 That one offers both minijack and (limited) control of the pod, but the one I had only had a minijack option so I don't know how well the remote feature works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
