Ipod integration factory HU
#16
yes you can. the sat connection is just a simpler alternative to removing HU. trust me ive researched it plenty. those BB people dont know what theyre talkin bout or they want to sell you a new unit. the usa-spec pa15-nis will connect to the back of the factory bose unit. theres a detailed diy somewhere in here ill look

That would be sweet. But if you can, get one that has a removable faceplate because those aftermarket head units are easy to steal. And usually spark someones interest in giving your car a good rummaging around because they might think you have a sub/amp setup as well.

Yeah I thought it was weird. Technically all you need is an extra AUX port in the back of the head unit which most factory HU have at least one. Even older cars from the late 90's and early 00's come equipped. It just needs to be utilized. But steering wheel controls might not be useable if you just go with the AUX port.

Yes, like Sandaluv stated, you can do it with the stock head unit by just going for an AUX adapter. The audio quality will be just as good. Although functionality like picking songs and playlists will still need to be done manually on the iPod/iPhone itself. And best of luck to you on your research. Hopefully the DIY can get you what you want. If not, the aftermarket head unit will be more than up to the job.

It looks pretty straight forward. Plan on ordering the pa15-infi later this week.

i put mine in on sat. it went well. hardest part was fishing the cables under carpet and through center console. the unit is under my rear seat kinda towards the middle. i discovered theres enough room under the center console for it but i didnt want to fish the cables through again. pita! 1 other thing the radio button might not recognize the unit initially. if this happens , then go ahead and unplug the power cable and replug it this did the trick for me . good luck

I don't have an ipod at the moment . i have an android phone and an mp3. I bought a 6 foot long 3.5 millimeter jack and used the auxiliary input on the unit for now. but i did run the ipod cable as well so ill be set for any device. all four switches are set to the on position. but the instructions will tell you what combinations to use for your particular device. which reminds me of why I put the box under my rear seat.easy access for switching . by the way I completely agree with you on sirius satellite .

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I've searched and searched and this is the closest thread that is close to the dilemma I'm facing...
I have the Bose (NO SAT or Nav), meaning the 4 buttons along the top of my stereo read "CD, Tape, FM, AM", not necessarily in that order, but I wan to install the GROM bluetooth kit (just put one in my Honda Odyssey), but I do not have the notorious "SAT" button.
My question is, can I just purchase a used factory Bose HU with the "SAT" and it be a direct plug-n-play swap (no modifications) so I can pursue the bluetooth route?
I want to retain the factory appearance, yet utilize the steering wheel controls for bluetooth streaming and hands-free calling.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
