All this IPOD talk, I am going to buy one today...

I never knew that you could install an ipod into the ba.....

Where have you been all my life....

Correct, i was about to buy one of the $40 ebay jobs until i was told there pretty much s**t, and to get the Booster job.

I have experienced no problems with my one........., Only thing is I have to make sure the volume on the pod is set to full, otherwise it can be a bit quiet. Max volume seems to be very close to that of other inputs (ie radio, cd etc)!

Is there a major benefit with the updated version?

The boosted one is better it also comes with the proper cable to connect the ipod and is retractable cable its pretty neat (i work for a ford dealer)

Are you sure the cable in the kit is an ipod connector - it is a 3.5mm retractable cable where as the ipod uses a 2.5mm plug. i think you might need a connector from d**k smiths.

fits perfectly in the bottom of my nano

the full kit with the bosster is ready to go, the half kit need and extrension connector from d**k smith usually,

Only downside with both of these kits is that control is still via the Ipod, where as the pioneer kits are fully interactive with the HU.

Bit of a bugger. but oh well.

The only other way arounf is to get the premo sound and then buy the Alpine HUB, this allows you to connect all sorts to your ford std system.

you will have to tell me more about the alpine hub? Will this replace the std sound system in the BA's?

Just cause ages ago I wanted to get an after market sounds system in my BA and I could find anyone who would sell one....

NOTE, YOU MUST HAVE THE PREMO SOUND FOR THIS SYSTEM

Hmm i might have to check out teh hub also

What would it take to install the "PREMO SOUND" if I didn't already have it? Or should I give up now.....

try ASL logistics or FTG.

Shouldnt set you back anymore than 1500.00 without the 6 stacker, but you wont need that with an ipod.
