[EURO] AUX in WORK (snhond3)

[coyote]

Thats where I got mine as well - took onl;y a few days to arrive - very effiecient even if pricey. Ive yet to understand how it all works but in my quick test the ipod played thru the CDC part of the HU no problem - once ive sorted out a bracket i can finally get it fully working!

Surely the unit fits into the centre console cupboard? I'd rather have it out of sight from the numerous thieving bastards out there...

How much did you pay for your Denison unit?

I was going to use the cradle stood up screwed to a block of wood so that the ipod was just inside the cupboard, but theres not enough room to slide the ipod out of the cradle - it hits the roof of the cupboard.... maybe you can make it fit but i couldnt. I liked the idea of making use of the cupboard and its antitheft ability, but seems its not gonna happen unless i lay the ipod down and then i cant see whats playing....

i think the price ws 175USD... check the site tho as it may been on special...

It'll be a week or so until I get mine working., but 'll let you know how I go. I'd steer clear of a bracket until you have exhausted all other attempts...

I ended up paying US$199 for the unit including shipping to Melbourne.

I used velcro. One piece on the ipod belt holder - the other just to the side of the head unit display - looks real neat - i'll post some pics

Been using the Dension for a while now (made my own bracket from a piece of alloy from Bunnings ($6ish) - one piece bent to go to the bolt behind the screw off panel in the footwell and heads down at an angle back to the ground and cut so the end sticks out from behind the trim about 1.5cm. Then one piece bent to lip over the console near the cabinet door that heads down and overlaps the end of the other bar - i then screwed these together with self tappers. painted it all satin black ($2.99 from Supercheap) and with some rubber taped behind and on the lip round the console edge its worked out great and hardly noticable at all - the ipod seems to float! i screwed the dension cradle to the lip curve (i went wide when i bent this curve so it sticks out towards the seat a bit to get the width for the bolts/screws to fix the cradle) and then also used double sided tap on all the cradle parts as the cradle can be hit by your knee and seems to losen up quickly - the tape gives it some movement but not so it will fail or seem loose.

no pics but if you read this and have built brackets before and are willing to take your time to get it right and be careful not to damage the dash plastics then I say go for it, mine works well and best of all it was <$10 and 2 hours work.

Fitting the dension with the links in this thread is childsplay. :-)

Just got the new Blitzsafe HON/M-LINK1V.2 a couple of weeks back and it's great . It's got the ipod plug on it so it plays and charges at the same time. Got it from discountcarstereo.com for around the same price.

just got my Soundgate SNHOND3 after the long wait.
just wanna say tat it is 100% work in oz euro as well.
just installed it today... the sound is great when connecting to my ipod.

Do we connect the ipod to Soundgate SNHOND3 using the normal ipod cable or do we need to buy another cable? Can we still use the console box and do you have picture showing where you put your ipod?

The SNHOND3 only comes with RCA plugs. You wil need to get an interface cable or dock to connect the iPod. The Blitzsafe HON/M-LINK1V.2 and Ice Link come with the iPod connectors. The Ice Link gives you the control of the iPod from the steering wheel and stereo console and both also charge the iPod.

sorry to bump up this old one... but where have you guys run the 3.5mm/iPod dock plugs to?

Glovebox? or can you access the centre console box without making any holes?

anyone have a pic?

I'm planning on getting one of those Blitzsafe jiggers
