serious the modulators are crap - i had one of them wireless ones but the sound was always crackly + u picked up interference esp on the motorway.Once i got it fitted (hardwired) never had a problem.
I just remove the holding arm and take the ipod in the house when im done with it.

2 many thieves u see - not a safe world we live in

Ouch! I gotta tell ya, my first new car I was in the process of adding things (1990). I had managed to get the price tag down to $1800 for custom speakers and amps. One night, I forgot and left the head unit in, they got that, my RD, 10 cd's, my briefcase with a semesters worth of labs and homework, plus they damaged my door, locks, pulled the hood release cable so hard it broke (my hood would stick, you needed to actaully push it down to release it) and cut my battery cable to silence the car alarm. I was out the $400 head unit, but glad I never actaully spent the $1800+ for the gear I wanted. Since then it's been factory radio hell (I drive a ford) and the only cd's I keep in the car, I burn myself.


Today's car bling is crazy. All sorts of ground effects, body panels, then add neon lights, blinking lights, and loud stereos to attract attention. It was already said - You can't keep nice things out in the open. I just shake my head when I see the youngsters having fun, 'cause I know one night they are going to suffer.

I hope you still have your iPod.

You're not alone.

I recently had my head-unit and some other things stolen from my car. The worse part is they basically ruined my car (over $400 in damage) over a head-unit that I picked up for about $80 second-hand.... Needless to say I'm very very pissed about the fact that my power windows no longer work, my doors are ruined and no longer keep out water, my dashboard was ripped to peices, and somehow they managed to screw up my heating right in the middle of winter.

All this over one head-unit that they probably sold for $20....I swear some people are the scum of the earth. Soon as I get my next car I'm going to set this one on fire and roll it down a hill into a deep lake...then I can put this all behind me.

Totally agree with you! I'm planning on building my next car and you can bet your ass that it will be a sleeper! Who needs all that dead weight and flash when you can sink the money into doing something useful like making the car go faster, or handle better, or behave the way you'd like it to.

They found my car, some broken windows and cars are pretty damaged. A mexican gang took it.

Never want to park in a city again...

Back on subject

I was now thinking of putting a DECK in my car which also lets the IPOD hook up to the deck
