iPod Connectivity
OK so after repairing the microphone cable, routing it down the A pillar etc. and reconnecting everything (mind you this is a huge pain in the butt), testing voice command to make sure the repair was good, replacing the ECU panel to the way it was, finally I was able to get back to working on the install.
I have an old U2 Special Edition iPod and hooked it up as shown below here. It worked great. The Nav Unit immediately recognized the iPod and the iPod controls are enabled. Sorry I don't have pics of the screen but here's the iPod being tested.
In the picture above, the glove compartment was removed and I used zip ties to make sure the cables stay put and replaced the compartment. Both the iPod cable and USB cables are in the glove compartment.
OK almost done...
