Aux v. Ipod

genaman · 2004-12-04 21:52:57

wuld the ipod setup also charge the ipod? 65097 I'm planning to use this charger/dock connector: http://store.sik.com/merchant.mv?Screen=PR...ct_Code=03-1004 (http://store.sik.com/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=SS&Product_Code=03-1004) It should work great, as the e60 has a 12V port available directly underneath the glove box for charging (the AUX input connector is in the glove box)... and for the audio connection, both ends are 3.5mm stereo jacks. Since the audio out comes straight from the dock connector's LINE OUT, and not the headphone out on the iPod, the audio quality will be as clean as is possible. 65106 I posted this in the other thread too.... It's a little more expensive but the jack for the audio out is right on the part that plugs into the power outlet. So alot fewer wires and alot cleaner look. Just my 2 cents..... http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage...oduct_Id=149006 (http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Merchant_Id=&Section_Id=201526&pcount=&Product_Id=149006) 65117 Thanks ULtraPLanet... I like your idea better... I'll be picking one up tomorrow. Cheers! Thanks to the rest of you for the warm welcome... this is the best forum for the E60 on the internet!!! :thumbsup:
