How much was that? Since I have the iPod hooked up I don't need the CD player anymore. The cost of the cable and the car mount/holder was pretty reasonable and the install was super easy. Like I mentioned before I know nothing about car stereos.

I would love to see how the finished product turned out...

That's a bit more than I'd want to spend.

My flight from DEN was delayed last night into ORD (big surprise lol) I'll try to get some pics posted tomorrow morning. It's a pretty nice set-up. I think the mount will be exactly what you are looking for with your iPod, Nick.

That's actually the same mount we used in my friend's C4S. Very nice !

Looking forward to the pics...

Thanks,

Nick

Here are the pictures of the mount, the iPod in it, and the cable hooked up.

Chills,

Looks great ! Very clean and professional !

Very funny though, I have the exact same garage door opener in the exact same place in my car

Gotta get yourself a new Ipod though

Nick
