Re: Ipod hook up for factory nav
Last thing I want to do is get used to the lights and chimes going off so when something really is wrong with my truck I don't notice. I didn't expect high quality with the fm modulator. It was a simple and cheap fix that did not make my dash lights and chimes go crazy and allowed me to listen to my iPod. I mostly only used it for books and podcasts on long trips instead of music. I never experienced the chimes and lights, just read about them on here and decided against it. Good luck, let us know how it works out.

Re: Ipod hook up for factory nav
A person i work with has an 05 with nav and he didn't want to put an aftermarket headunit in. He used a ipod adapter and last i knew really likes it. I'll ask him which one he is using next time i see him but I'm sure someone will chime in before long. I had a blose 6 cd in mine and couldn't wait to change it. Installed a Kenwood w/nav and bluetooth and have been very happy with it.

Re: Ipod hook up for factory nav
When I still had the factory NAV I used the Peripheral iPod interface (PXDPGMT)...now discontinued.

I never had any real problem with it...no random light flashes or door chimes; it just worked as advertised. Peripheral changed their name to iSimple; they've got some new interfaces, maybe compare them against the ones you've already found.

Re: Ipod hook up for factory nav
ive thought about swapping out the factory nav, but theres really no reason for me to. the nav works fine, the only thing i wanted was an ipod hookup. have heard any bad personal experiences with these kits. ill have to talk to a few manufacturers and see what they say about them.

Re: Ipod hook up for factory nav
Is it a must for you to have on screen controls?
I have a gm lock pick and it allows reverse cam, and two audio inputs one with video. It charges the iPod/phone while listening.
I don't use the iPod adaptor unless I want to watch a movie. I use the headphone out and plug a RF receiver in the iPod port and that allows me to use a wireless remote to control the music.
Search the forum... I think I did a detailed write up on install

I have the same in my 2008.... isimple works fantastic!!
I had the Nucleus in my 2006, this is the one that occassionally made the chimes go off, it only happened on a very rare occasion. If I had it to do over again I would have went with a Peripheral unit, I have the Peripheral in my Z06 and it performs flawlessly.
