Stock head unit / Ipod

What are my options when it comes to keeping a stock head unit and integrating an ipod connection.

If you are wanting an Ipod in a 993 you will need to upgrade the head unit. The CDR 220 from a 996 works well and Becker USA will sell you the Aux in wiring harness. It is a straightforward swap out but you will need to remove the wire cage that the original 993 CDR 210 unit slid into. Also you will need to get the faceplate modified to be able to view clearly in a 993 (Becker or SW Stereo). There are lots of aftermarket units will work too, but I like the look of the 220 to keep things authentic.
Hope that helps.
Bill

What head unit do you have? The cassette or CD? You can add a iPod cable to the CD one, but not the cassette. Of course the CDR 220 will work.

Here is the cable I have in both my cars.
