This method allows you to power the iPod as well as use it as an auxiliary sound input.

If you don't need to power your iPod from the car, it is simpler. The Becker connector fits into the back of the radio. The two female RCA connectors on the Becker connector are mated to a cable with two male RCA plugs on one end a stereo mini plug on the other.

I've performed this modification twice - on my 2000 Boxster and on my friends 2002 model. Without the power function, it takes less than an hour. If you're handy with a soldering iron the full procedure takes less than an hour and a half.

Note, the iPod connector uses the input originally intended for the CD changer. If you have a CD changer, you will have to design a switch or do without the changer function.

Good luck - if you were a little closer I'd offer to help.


Very helpfull - thanks Kevin

Cheers

Dennis
