MP3 player to G35
Can I connect any MP3 player to the car... it is a 08 G35 w/ Nav
I have the IPOD connector but have not jumped on the Ipod train... |
umm the cd player plays mp3 cds...
get a ipod... you'll be better off.. |
too many other MP3 players that work with my other cars... besides I dont like IPODS other than the iphone
|
ipod touch is just like iphone.

if u get a stereo to rca adaptor, and *somehow disable* the moving restriction for aux play, i guess u can....., or u can get a cheap used bad condition ipod that will always be inside the middle pocket and no one will ever see.
|
I thought the RCA inputs would play audio while moving, just not video....:dunno: I'll have to double check, but that would be your best bet if you don't want an iPod.
|
i doubt that it will continue to play just audio cuz then people who watch movies would have ****ed up sync... best bet is to get ipod or bypass the restriction.
|
It will play just audio through the RCA jacks while moving. I hooked my Sirius up through it before I decided to swap out the OEM box. Sorry about the indecisiveness earlier....that's what I get for posting before I'm fully awake :D

I initially tried this setup in my G, but decided to get a couple 2GB Compact Flash cards instead (you can pick these up on eBay for around $2-$3 each). This way, I can control my music via G35 interface. Also, I always have my music with me and don't have to bring my mp3 player every time. |
does the compact flash card go in the ipod?

No need to disable anything. Any mp3 player will work in the G35 via RCA inputs while moving. All you need is a Y cable that connects to the red and white aux RCA inputs on the G and to standard 3.5mm stereo jack on your MP3 player. The only downside to this setup is that you can't control your mp3 player via G35 controls, and have to change music via your player.

I just ordered my CF card and RCA cables... I should be set now...

so with the '08s you can't use any mp3 player? i know on the '07s all we have are the RCA cables for Aux input...i run my garmin gps through the video (yellow) and my ipod through the audio (white and red) silmutaneously with no probs...i guess the ipod integration was only helpful for the '08 owners if you own an ipod...i also heard it takes forever to go through your artists on the stock rotary knob |
As mentioned above, the 08 aux in works the same as the 07's. You can hook up anything you want. It's only video that's locked out while the car is in motion.
08 iPod integration is actually pretty good. There are several ways to get around the problem of scrolling through artists. I can find any song on my ipod (50+ gigs) within 30 seconds. |
