wackosr Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Evening Folks. Currently looking at doing the iPod hack when a get some spare time. Also looking at a possible variation and wondered if anyone else had tried something similar or has any thoughts/tips. Basically instead of using a 3,5mm jack soldered on to the Bose unit, looking to use an iPhone AV cable. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 969wt_1280 Then I can use the left and right phonos to solder on to the head unit. The USB to a power supply to charge my phone and the AV phono into the cubby for a display. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 095wt_1141 I can hopefully use the display to mirror the phones screen or show apps like Sat Nav, or movies. This one has two inputs, with one over riding the other. I could use this to connect a rear view camera too and when selecting reverse the camera signal will have priority and the rear view will be shown. Please let me know your thoughts??

jenic Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 All I can think to say is if you do it, get a wiring diagram up! Sounds a good plan, maybe look to get higher res display? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wackosr Posted July 18, 2011 Author Share Posted July 18, 2011 Thanks. Yes, I'll take pics and sorry out a wiring diagram at the time and post it. Not a bad call, but I've opted for the £20 effort to trial, if all goes to plan, I'll look into upgrades when I've got some spare pennies! Just have to wait for it to be shipped from Hong Kong!! Any camera recommendations?? Cheers Jacko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
