Crossss Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 There is an auxilary jack inside the armrest. You'll need a male/male wire to connect it to the jack and the ipod. From there you can set your factory radio to AUX and it'll play your ipod. The only thing you cant do is change songs on your ipod from the factory stereo. You must do that manually. I hope that answers your question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5.4 Shelby Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Thanks...best buy have something like that or maybe radion shack...??? Got mine at Radio Shack for about $6.99. You don't need a fancy one. ipod quality is not good enough to require gold plated connections and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that answers your question. Here is another option that's more elegant. It's a Ford accessory and is a bit more expensive than the aux jack approach. However, it is on sale for $285.30. Here's the description from the site below: Take your tunes on the road! Now you can integrate your iPod® into your vehicle’s audio system. Just plug your iPod into the dock connector, conveniently located in the glovebox, to listen to your iPod selection through the vehicle’s speakers. You can navigate your iPod’s menu via the radio or steering wheel, while your selection (song, playlist, etc.) is displayed on your factory-installed radio. TripTunes Advanced also charges your iPod. Compatible with most 30-pin iPods. Currently not available on navigation radio systems. Has anyone tried this yet? http://www.troyfordaccessories.com/product...esAdvanced.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCMO-GT500 Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 ..my youngest son did that in his 02 escape and it works great. You have to pull the radio to get to the back jacks tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
