thanks for your quick reply!

so it will cost me A$148 all up (incl. shipping) which seems reasonable

but i have no idea how to install this thing. I have no experience in this area, a complete noob. Can anyone help this poor gal out? I dont want to spend the money if i cant get it installed properly.
Where are you in Sydney.I know a good installer on the south side.They installed amps,dynamat,speakers,carkit etc.in my car.They may also be able to supply the adapter thing that you need as well.

buy this whilst the US exchange rate is 0.815 cents and do it yourself. I am sure dealers have a similar device but I doubt it will be cheaper than this delivered from the USA (small package so shipping should not be painful)

I don't know the answer to the first question - you can try to find somewhere if you don't like ordering online.

With this unit you can only control volume on the steering wheel. If you want to be able to change tracks using the steering wheel you need one of the ipod specific controllers which are much more expensive.

Very expensive shipping - this is a really small unit - light and no bigger than 2 packets of cigarettes.

This is another option guys - made by PIE

Just shop around for something with reasonable shipping. It really only weighs a few hundred grams at most so places wanting $40US for shipping are just gouging.

I am pretty sure I got my SNHOND3 from this retailer. They also sell the Pie

Found an installation guide on the SNHOND3, for the Accord. Not Euro though. Looks like some decent work.

Yes and your steering controls should still work as well.

Just wondering if anyone has fitted a roof mounted DVD screen that has a sunroof?
I have an 03 Luxury and would love a screen for the back that doesn't run through the speakers....

I've seen many portabel DVD players that can be hang on the back of the front seats. Not sure how a roof mounted DVD screen will be mounted cos of the sunroof.

Hi, I am upgrading to a headunit now and I would be selling my Blitzsafe Aux adapter for Honda Accord/EURO. Basically it connects to the back of your HU and it plugs directly to your IPOD. It also charges up your IPOD, so no more running out of juice. I will be putting it on the parts for sale section :)

How much do you want for it?

It is still in excellent condition, $75 shipped. It is the same as this:

Which gen of iPods does it work with?

curik

All kind of Ipods will work except the Shuffle since it doesn't have the Ipod connector plug

Anyone recommend a car audio place in Brisbane. Id rather pay someone who knows what they are doing to fit this for me, than me trying a DIY job! Not sure which unit is the best to go for yet either, so open to recommendations. Seems to make sense to get one where the controls on steering wheel still works.
