I have a cdr-220 connected to a cdc3 cd changer. I do not want to change the head unit but I would like to connect an ipod to the system. However unlike all the cables and other options i have found online i DO NOT want to disconnect and loose the cd changer.
I am not fussed about charging the ipod or seeing track info on the head unit. The ipod would mount on the dash somewhere but i want a high quality input rather than an fm modulator.
Is there anything out there that will take the cd changer output from the cdr-220, split it to the cd changer and the ipod, and give me a manual switch which i could route and mount discretly in the cabin to select between the two?
I know i could put in an EQ or sound processor between my head unit or amp that adds an additional aux input but i would prefer a simpler solution if possible.
Thanks

 

Its either or- do a search- i made a thread on this- its a $35 cable

 

I have the cable on my car and it takes the place of the cd changer input

 

i looked into making a switch but abandoned the idea. I just added satellite radio and took the c/d changer out.

Heads up to those that do this, you have to disconnect the changer from the wiring in the trunk or else the head unit thinks its still attached and cycles through the c/d's trying to load one. once i removed the changer then all worked correctly.

I have an extra aux input connector if you need one, bullittandy at gmail

 

I have a CR-220 that was attached to the factory CD changer. When I removed the changer, there were two cables - one with a DIN connection and one with a white and red stereo connection.

I didn't try, but I wondered if it would be possible to insert a splitter between the changer and white/red connector that would accept the audio signal from an iPod or other device.
