Possible Ipod solution?

I know this has been discussed before but this may be a solution. Does anyone know if this item works with the X-Trail?

http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_s...C_AAI_NIS.html

I've never seen the back of the in-dash 6 CD changer so I don't know if there is a 10 pin connector on the back. Does anyone have a pic of the back of the factory unit out?

I had an enfig connector with my VW and it worked awesome. I've emailed him to ask if it is compatible I'll let you know. He's in the States though so he probably won't know since they don't have the X-Trail.

That'd be excellent. No more iTrip = better sound !

Funny...

I just clicked on the link you provided and saw that they're selling that little box for $999.99.

On sale!

Must be a mistake (I hope).

The back of the X-Trail's six-disc changer looks like this:


The highlighted area is an unused connector (at least in the X-Trail). Could be for satellite radio or external CD changer control?

Thanks for the pic. I'll email that to him. Here is a better picture of the upgraded adaptor
http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_s..._AAI_NIS2.html

If the current HU is XM or Sirius ready then this may work...

Also if the stereo is similiar or the same as the following:
2005 Altima
2004-2005 350Z
2005 Frontier (Nismo & LE version)
2004-2005 Maxima
2003-2005 Murano
2003-2005 Pathfinder
2004-2005 Quest

i bought a Belkin ipod car kit at Costco... put it in the dash glove box, and use my ipod video that way... crystal clear sound, no wires, and easy to hide... perfect solution for me that cost like 70 bucks... (acts as a charger too

Are u talking about the iPod® T1082 Ultimate Starter Kit $74.99 Item # 107873?

If yes, I prefer to put my .mp3 on Cds instead of carrying an iPod and extra cables or whatnot. For now I am using the iTravel FM transmitter which works very nice but I don't want to hide the iPod every time I am out of the vehicle. Have in mind that this is my preference only and not everyone's.

ya thats what i have,,, hey man no offense taken... I am 90% highway so hiding it once in awhile isn't a problem for me... there are no cables which i like... just the mount that the ipod sits in... perfect for me but maybe not everyone...

ps- does the stock HU play mp3's?

No, the stock radio SUCKS big time I am gonna change it with a after-marker MP3 player. BTW, take a look at this item: Digipower iPod Navigator, $39.99, Product #37-4465-4 at Crappy Tire. I use it in my other car and it works great also but it would be a bit bulky in the X-Trail but it fits perfectly in the Grand Am.

Hi, sorry so long to reply.

I didn't end up installing this. The merchant wasn't sure if it would fit and I didn't want to take the chance. I just use my cassette adaptor now.

Could you post a picture of this contraption? I'm not a Costco member, but could convince a friend to purchase if suitable.

Cheers,

Emil
