I'm still undecided

That looks like a great bit of kit if it's as functional as it claims to be. The only concern I would have is about DTV reception- Spoke to an ICE installer a while back who says that they haven't managed to get a reliable connection yet in-car.

Although I suppose when we switch to digital in this area the DTV signal will be boosted

Sorry to bring up an old thread again.

I have an ipod classic 160GB. Looking for a cradle to fit inside the passenger armrest (no phone prep) - so thinking of a Dice cradle with no leads to fit in there out of sight. Any good?

I have TV tuner no.2 as shown at the start of the thread. Can someone point me in the direction of a supplier of the adaptor lead with the two outputs and multiplug shown? The one that then plugs into the tuner.

Which Ipod lead do I go for, from the tuner adaptor lead to the ipod? Must it be genuine ipod?

Will I be able to stream video too?

What about charging @ 5v? Seen this lead http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/iPod-dock-lead...item5d2db52ea2 but you also need a 5v dropper too.

Finding all of this confusing, especially as you can have a pc, or dice module.

I just want to hook up and charge my ipod Cheapest way possible, but none of this FM tuner malarkey. Got to look pukka.

Thanks in advance

ETA: I don't mind losing the CD player or the tv tuner if this helps

Plenty of options to replace the CD changer.. The dension units get a good write up and I think most if not all of them will charge at the same time.
