I have it up until the part where you need to need to connect the wires to the back of the head unit.

Don't buy something that is made to only work with Ipod, don't limit yourself. If you buy something with a standard AUX input, you can use any device that has a headphone jack on it. I did a custom install on my MX-5 last month so I could use my Iriver....Ipod knockoff. I put the CD player in my glove box, flush mounted into a black vinyl backdrop. I ran the AUX cable (really a headphone jack with 2 male ends) so it would come up through where my emergency brake handle is....that way you don't have to see any wires running from my device to the glove box, or dashboard if you put it there.....visible wires are terrible. My Iriver has an FM tuner, so I don't have to keep the glove box open. I keep the CD player volume at a set level and control the volume through my Iriver.....it is actually a pretty sweet setup.</p> <p>On the higher-end, you could put in an after market system with amps and everything and get a headphone to RCA jack and run your device straight in to your amps </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/scion-tc-ipod-connectivity#post-542 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 08:10:06 +0000 autoride 542@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>well i believe the question is not about whether or not he is going to look cool but about the ipod connectivity. so i'll keep to the topic.</p> <p>starting with the 2007, all scion tc's come equipped with the ipod port. they give you a basic audio cable and special aux jack cable. the standard audio system is pioneer branded. although there is space and wiring setup for adding a sub woofer, it doesn't come with the car. i spent an extra $350 for the upgraded system which sounds similar to the stock setup but offers more control options for your ipod and looks higher tech. to control your ipod through the head unit, you have to use the special aux cable available through scion or at any electronics store. there is no usb connection. </p> <p>the audio sounds pretty decent and there are a variety of special settings to fine tune the sound, but my overall complaint is that the road noise can muffle out your music at times. </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/scion-tc-ipod-connectivity#post-524 Sun, 12 Jul 2009 08:59:38 +0000 faceboy 524@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>i possibly maybe getting a scion tc, what year did the ipod usb port come in the car? and if i get one and it doesn't have the usb cord that comes with the car, can i just use the usb cord that came with my ipod? and does the scion tc comes with a nice stock system? </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/what-is-the-best-way-to-wire-an-ipod-into-your-car-stereo-1#post-451 Fri, 10 Jul 2009 11:12:39 +0000 fir 451@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>I tried to have Best Buy install it, but when they hardwired it into my car stereo, it would run my battery down when the car was turned off. The guy at Best Buy said all he did was hook it up through a hot wire and he didn't know why it drained the battery when turned off. Any suggestions? </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/stream-fm-radio-freom-ipod#post-420 Wed, 08 Jul 2009 08:45:34 +0000 charles123 420@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>Does anyone know if its possible to stream DI.fm radio station on my iPod toush using wifi? </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/ipod-radio-remote#post-419 Wed, 08 Jul 2009 08:03:32 +0000 charles123 419@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>I bought this, but I notice the radio reception is very poor.

There's just some disadvantages in using it though but don't worry. I don't think there's anything in the market that has been called perfect. </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/how-much#post-186 Sun, 03 May 2009 15:05:14 +0000 salbelina 186@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>Oh well, you're being ripped as far as I can see it. If I recall correctly it should only cost from 1000 to 1200. Good luck. </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/how-much#post-182 Sun, 03 May 2009 02:24:52 +0000 elaine 182@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>a good price actually..much cheaper compare if you buy and then let other do the installing.. </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/how-much#post-167 Thu, 30 Apr 2009 10:56:54 +0000 benette 167@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>that is too costly i guess.. you have to find another installer </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/any-thoughts-on-the-scosche#post-138 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 13:55:28 +0000 kotosof 138@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>I'm also using kenwood you know.

Okay, I'm going straight to the point now if that's okay. Has any of you bought a new aftermarket radio? I mean, did any of you here went to car places to install it? If yes, well... How much does it normally cost? I got offers that ranges from $1500 to $2000. Anyone? I'm just asking cause I'm having a feeling they're just ripping me off. </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/any-thoughts-on-the-scosche#post-114 Mon, 20 Apr 2009 16:30:20 +0000 NickMack 114@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>Scosche is an aftermarket accessories and adapter company. they do not make radios. the company that i find to be the best is kenwood. they make many great radios that have very good ipod control. you can check out some of the radios on amazon <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&#38;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26ref%255F%3Dnb%255Fss%255Fgw%255F0%255F11%26field-keywords%3Dkenwood%2520car%2520stereo%26url%3Dsearch-alias%253Daps%26sprefix%3Dkenwood%2520car&#38;tag=oeminte-20&#38;linkCode=ur2&#38;camp=1789&#38;creative=390957">Here</a> </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/any-thoughts-on-the-scosche#post-86 Thu, 09 Apr 2009 01:16:29 +0000 gustafsg 86@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>Just curious what you think of this brand for aftermarket radio w/ipod..worth buying or what is a better or worse product? </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/what-exactly-does-this-mean#post-24 Tue, 10 Feb 2009 18:57:22 +0000 NickMack 24@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>some aftermarket head units have a universal 1/8" (3.5mm) jack on the front. this jacks allow you to plug in you iPod, mp3 player, ect., but they do not allow control from the radio.<br /> there are aftermarket radios out there that allow you to connect your iPod through the digital port on the bottom. then you will be able to control the iPod directly from the head unit. You can fine more information <a href="http://www.oem-interface.com/?p=23">here</a> </p> http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/topic/what-exactly-does-this-mean#post-15 Fri, 06 Feb 2009 10:06:57 +0000 Kimmyh51 15@http://www.oem-interface.com/bbpress/ <p>I am not sure whether this forum is about connecting my iPod to my radio that I have already brought by plugging the ipod in (the 3 &#38; 3/4 or whatever its called headphone jack) or whether you mean acutally customising the unit to allow the ipod to play through it? </p>
