2002 MC plane jane radio without NAV.

What iPOd cable would work for me? I do have the Changer and would like to be able to control it from the HU and see a filename or song title at the least, but would prefer the filename. I think it would be a nice clean integration if it would plug into the changer plug in the back and tuck everything in the side panel.

What cable's for me?

 

Anyone .... ?

 

I don't have one yet but from everything I've read the new DICE adapter is the one for you. I don't believe that you'll be able to see any text on your HU though. I think that only works on '05s and up.

 

I don't think any of the iPod kits, MINI, ice link, nor DICE, will work along with a CD Changer. You can have one or the other, but not both.

 

I guess I should have been a little more clear, I don't mind at all sacrificing the changer. All 6 cd's in there were made from MP3's.

Can someone confirm the no display on an 02?

 

The DICE unit is the best I've found so far. I have an IceLink+ in my wife's cabrio, and had (and sold) the Monster iCruze before getting the DICE. There are a couple of minor annoyances that DICE is re-issuing the hardware module to correct but it is fast, offers a variety of control functions and will display text on the 05+ headunits easily. At $159 it seems to be a good value - but wait a couple of weeks to make sure the 'fixes' they've started to ship actually fix the problems. The iCruze gets the nod for the "coolness" factor of the display, but it relies on 5 playlists just like the OEM unit.

FYI - I'm using mine ICW factory Sirius - using the pass-thru method. The iCruze, retail version of the IceLink+ (from Best Buy), and the DICE unit all connect to the CD-changer connection in the boot area.

 

So ... if I get a radio out of an 05+ will it show the test on the display?
