Just got a call back from my dealer with a quote for the new ipod MOST interface part + labour.......

$1120 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

for an ipod !!! that's insane !!!

They told me the labour would take 3.5 hours !!!
I didn't realize they needed to take the entire car apart !!

Well.....I don't know what to make of it....I think I'll stick to operating the ipod...from the ipod...... with my $30 Monster cable connected to the aux input!

Is it Canadian dollars? But, it's still insane. Maybe, the interface connector is made of diamond
What a rip off!

If you already have CD changer, just do the installation yourself or just install it and bring it to dealer to enable it. This saves you at least $500. Programming should be not be charged for no more than 1 hr.

I've been saying that forever.


Just get a Monster plug. $30. Problem solved.
