some people

 

From past threads ive seen on the subject it is a LONG and detailed process that involves taking apart your dash and doing alot of rewiring to get it built in. Do some searches and you should find some instructions and hardware to get.

I personally went with the following and im VERY happy with it:

It got awesome ratings and its SOOO easy. All you do is plug it in and VOILA. it charges and plays your music at the same time. It also is so powerful of a transmitter that last weekend my friends in the car behind me were picking up my music perfectly.

It has a nice feature where it doesnt use the voule from the Ipod so you cant accidentally blow your speakers but turning it up too loud.

Hows the quality on that FM transmitter compared to cd or something.

 

I also have the same Kensington Digital Transmitter and am pleased with its performance in the G......with the Bose system, it sounds fine....almost cd quality. However, in my other vehicles, I have much better sound systems and playing music from my Ipod through the Kensington is ok.....I'll need to get a hardwire solution for those.

 

After using a fm transmitter from belkin, i switched to a tape and was happier. I think the sound quality from the tape is great.

Here is my install.

 

well i have no tape in my 05 g

so FM is the only way for me

 

not it's not. crap. use the search function. there are more ways to do it than that.

 

Do you have sat? You can have a clean hardwire by tapping into the sat for 80bucks!

 

yea I have XM radio

 

I had belkin and replaced it with the Kensington....ITS A HUGE DIFFERENCE. Now with that said tape or sat plugins are better because they are hardwired.

Sionce he doesnt have a tape deck then thats out of the question. Tapping into the SAT plug is great(i personally dont have that button) if you can find someone to do the work or if you are comfortable enough to do it yourself.

good luck.

is the sound quality good with the fm transmitter?

 

http://www.g35ipod.com is a slick example of an iPod install. Also visit:

get the AAI-NIS unit, hooks up to SAT.

 

Note: Plugs in at back of radio only. This aux input will not work if the vehicle is already equipped with a satellite receiver


wtf?

 

I love it. with certain high pitched songs it gets a little weird BUT i havnt messed around with the settings to turn down the output yet. That should fix it.

Its sooo easy to use!
