My Ride: Current - 330 Sport Topaz Blue, Grey Leather, HK HIFI...lost interest!! Waiting for - 535d Sport, Silver Grey, Foldy Mirrors, 172 19",Logic7,Pro Radio,Through load,Heated Front Seats,High Gloss shadowline,Black Maple,Headlight wash,Sun Protection Glass.
Default

I'm thinking of getting one of these to canabalise...I am going to incorporate it into my Kuda phonebase (its hollow so the plug will go inside, I'll then use a cigarette socket on the inside to provide re-routed power from the rear lighter sockets as I have now for my Ipaq. Its also got a line out so hopefully sound quality should be canny for my Aux input through a 3.5mm jack.

Big frustration is, Ive only seen white...anyone seen black, or a similar cradle to this, i'm thinking of a Black Ipod Color. Basically all I need is an active charging cradle, not a Dension type install. See signature for Kuda pics currently with Ipaq, i want to emulate this for an Ipod.

What dya think??

The DLO TransPod Direct comes in black.


However, I do not recommend this product. I purchased one, and returned it for a refund due to horrble ground loop noise.
