Ipod Installation Instructions For The Do-it-yourselfer

One of the main features of an Ipod is convenience and portability. Unfortunately, since most car stereos are not designed to be used with an Ipod, an installation adapter is required in order to use it in conjunction with your car stereo. Luckily there is a large array of adapters out in the market. These adapters fall in three categories- wireless, build-in and cassette adapters, each with features best suited for different consumers.

The wireless Ipod adapters uses a short range FM transmitter to play music from Ipod to an FM Channel on the car stereo. Wireless adapters do not need any wires or installation procedures because it is connected through Ipod's dock connector. The sound quality is same as any FM radio station but sometimes low power signal can lead to interference. But these wireless adapters are more costlier than cassette adapters.

The adapters that are cassette type will feed the signal from the Ipod's dock connector through a device which is similar to a cassette. This is loaded into the cars stereo cassette deck. Though it is immune from interference, the sound will not be as good as you will get with a wireless FM transmitter. These adapters are best suited for a more budgeted car entertainment enthusiast.

You can get Ipod integration adapters as a factory installed option in many new cars. You can also get them for just about all cars from custom car audio shops, or as a self-install unit. The pre-installed adapters use the ipod's earphone jack to make a direct connection which will give you the best sound quality but it will also cost the most.

For example, Startronics car audio and video offers a startronics ipod integration service for around the same price as a custom stereo installation. Adapters which directly connect the Ipod through the stereo, satellite tuner, or CD changer's head unit are also available as do-it-yourself kits. However, these do-it-yourself adapters only work with certain car stereos, require more complex installation, and effectively replace the function of the satellite radio or CD player. Take your music on the road with seamless integration between your car and your iPod. A host of top automakers offer elegant solutions for both new cars and prior-year models. Or choose after-market iPod integration options from leading car stereo accessory manufacturers and outfit any car to play well with iPod.
