Pics would deff be nice since this sounds like the way I was lookin at setting mine up thanks

major downside if you use an iPhone is that it auto plays your "IPOD" app/your MP3s automatically..... so if you wanna use Pandora... you have to fight over control.

do you control the music with the ipod itself or are you able to switch between playlist and artist through the headunit?

I believe you can do both.

Once you plug the ipod in you can only control it through the headunit unless you unplug the ipod again.

For those of you who are using the PA15-NIS (behind the headunit) is your text display working properly? Mine was working for the 1st day or so and now only shows the number of the song playing not the actual song title.

Lol almost 4 years I've known Calvin and didn't know his car was automatic I guess I just assumed it was 6mt all these years.
Back to the topic.

Here's some pics of my setup. I like it because I can hide my ipod away if I want without any cords hanging around or I can pull it out (heh) and have my ipod/iphone sitting on my console for direct control. I gotta say, I'm quite happy with it.

very nice but do you get steering controls?
...i have an iphone 3gs ios 4 and my 03 g35 sedan with sat button "not installed"
i want to have steering controls and be able to charge the phone as well...."otherwise ill stick with the cassette"
i also wish their was a way to answer the phone as well but my sedan doesnt come with bluetooth.

I'm pretty sure you'll retain steering wheel controls. I think the pa15 fixed all of the compatibility issues that the previous model had, so you should be good to go. Though, you may want someone else with the 03 sedan to confirm.

Your lucky... The sound just stopped working on mine the day after install. I'm waiting on a replacement unit now. Still don't know what the hell happened.

This is not true.

lol man, you've been MIA. I saw you once a looooong time ago (after you went missing, lol) at AMC 30 in Covina. But you were too far to say whaddup to hahah.

so calvin, with the pa15-nis you can control everything through the ipod itself?

Those picture confirm exactly where and how I was wanting to route mine; either there or the slider compartment just in from of the armrest comparment. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

My only question would be, where did you place the module piece, ie: the grey box?
