Ipod Question

[HHummer]

Yes! Works perfectly - like part of the factory radio. PAC box has right and left trim so volume matches extremely well. As Brandon mentioned, the steering controls work, too. Radio reads out aux1 and aux2. Wired aux1 to mini plug out for XM radio or unplug and move to Ipod, and aux2 for DVD player. Sounds perfect. Thanks to HappyJack and the forum for the info on the console and clips, too.

I spoke to LogJam Electronics yesterday. They state they are still waiting for the shipment from Pac. Supposedly next week they will be available.

TouchDown,

I'm installing this weekend. Finally got my PAC unit from LogJam yesterday, I'll let you know how it goes. By the way, does the IRiver have the same capacity as the Ipod? I have the 20 gig Ipod, I put pretty much put my whole cd collection (about 2000 songs) and still have over 10 gigs of space left. I have bought other mp3 players, a NIke one (crap) and a Philips one. The Ipod blows them away.

I am still waiting to hear from logjam. I'm very anxious to get this in. I've left the soundgate piece in all this time because the only thing not working is the factory cd, but I have the audio for my PS2 and DVD setup so I've left it alone. I am awaiting this product so I can add my Ipod to the mix. I was using the Itrip modulator for awhile. It works fine around town and in the house, but once I get on the highway it sucked. It seems like I've taken the center console down so many times I can do it in about 5 minutes now, but like you Touchdown, a couple of my clips fell inside and I can't find them. What did they cost from the dealer? Once I get this done I'll post some pics. What started out as a a/v setup for my son has turned into quite a bitch.

This is the latest update on the AAI-GM24.
"One of our beta testers was having a reliability problem. So, we are
currently addressing that issue. There is no date available since the source
of the problem is unknown at this time. (As of Monday the 22nd)"

On a positive note, at least the paying customers are not beta testing.

Anyone had any problems with the PAC device? I'm going to order one just waiting to see if there are any problems. I spoke with one distributor from TX and he said that PAC was having some issues with the unit and that if any were out I should wait. So far from what I have read here, I'm ready to order. So any other commments good or bad about the unit will be a big help. BTW, has anyone added the PAC device that allows you to add a aftermarket amp to the factory stereo?

I took my H2 in for some other warranty items and they replaced the clip for me for free! I'm just glad I didn't have to remove everthing again just to put the clips on. If all goes well with these new Aux Input devices I will probably be tearing the radio out again but I am considering shopping around to see how much a local installer would charge! I look forward to hearing about your results. BTW, I have been using the Itrip too, sound quality definitely not CD quality but better than letting my $400 Ipod sit around!

[HHummer]

Should be just the mini stereo plug to rca plugs like you would use with a home stereo.

Due to the negative info on the soundgate, I have been waiting for the PAC AAI-GM24 Auxiliary Audio Input for GM vehicles shipping approximately March 1st!

I'm also waiting for the AAI-GM24. I just don't know what type of wire to come off of the Ipod with. Is it something that plugs in like the data cable? or is it something that plugs into the head phone jack?

I tried to do this with the soundgate adapter. Don't do it. Terrible sound quality with the adapter and alot of aggravation actually getting a soundgate adapter that will even respond. Search the BB's for posts by Klaus for the best info. on this. Hope this helps!

03 Black Adventure with all Lux Options,Brush Guard Lights, and Sylvania Silverstars. Go Vols!!!

Has anyone hard wired thiers? If so what kind of wire would I need to go from the Ipod to the Aux interface?
