iPod connection
« on: September 21, 2012, 06:23:15 pm »
How can I connect my iPhone to my rcd300??

I have already got the 6 disk changer in the arm rest, if I removed it would I just be able to use this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-MEDIA-IN-IPOD-CABLE-SCIROCCO-GOLF-POLO-RCD-310-510-NEW-000051446C-/190723672191?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2c6804487f&_uhb=1#ht_3504wt_922
Off the existing wires and away to go?

Thanks

If you intend keeping the rcd300 try looking at aftermarket stuff like a mk5 connects 2.

You can get an oem in armrest dock for ipods aswell but only works with the older stuff, apparently you can buy a connecter (jive) that carrys out a pin swap and you can use the newer ipods on the dock aswell
