I have just tonight setup my iPod with an iTrip and set the station to 95.0 FM .....sound brillaint and no problems.......

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Dutchie what is an itrip

[Fozzie]

itrip is a thing u plug in an ipod which transmits the music on FM95.0... tune in to it and listen away...a plus for this is u can have your ipod in any car with an FM stereo (even at home)

still dunno what would happen if 2 people with itrip were next to each other at the lights .. im sure they would cross over though

I have heard that the sound qual isnt the best though..

You can transmit on any frequency in the iPod if you leave all the stations in there. I have found that as I drive out to Gippsland other stations work better. Around Melbourne I use 91.5. The only problem with the iTrip is the inabilty to use shuffle play, it just changes the frequency. The Belkin unit is massive and not as "integrated" with the design of the iPod, but at lease you can shuffle play with it.

George, if you've got an iPod and no aux input in the car, an FM transmitter is the best thing around

Can the aux input be added to the current premium setup I have?

iPods in Ford! Just Don't do it! RUN RUN RUN RUN

Quote Senior Ford Official in the CTTT of NSW "The Auxialiary port on the Falcons were not designed with the iPod in mind, and therefore the iPod is to blame for the 35 visits and the trip to melbourne and the 107 days you didn't have your car"

*tongue out of cheek*

Seriously though this is the general gist of what Ford Aus said to me about my Audio problems.

Yes you can do it, and yes it works fine, either by FM tuner (Itrip etc) or via Aux plugs.

Cheers,

pfft.. iPod...

iRiver all the way

... and then there are the PDA's (pocket PC's), Navmans and whatever other mp3 capable device you happen to have with you at the time.

I use a cheap PDA with a 1GB flash which lives in my pocket anyway, it goes onto the AUX input when I am in the car - the cable stays under the tissue box.

Yes, you can either do it yourself or get Ford to do it.
Do a search on user aaronmihe, he has a link in his sig on how to do it.
