Vintage look, Ipod ready! Reply #15 – October 06, 2010, 09:32:16 PM Quote from: QUICKSHIFT;338260This is what I used before I updated my head unit. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/iSimple+-+Apple%26%23174%3B+iPod%26%23174%3B+Adapter+for+Most+Vehicle+Radios+(Basic+Install+Included)/9252122.p?id=1218068779609&skuId=9252122FM modulators are terrible - perhaps I used a poor quality one (not by the reviews I had seen online though), but there was this tinge to the sound that made it sound worse than a transmitter in a clear signal area. On another note, I have a 100mW transmitter that I use in other vehicles and it also is but better than all other transmitters I've used, no matter the power level I have selected, 1mW or 100mW, or antenna I have attached to it (and it also has raving reviews). Nothing compares to a line level input to an amp, like he has going on here. Quote Selected

The only help i can offer is is a picture of what i did with the primary control . It is a set of 5 potentiometers. One for an on/off switch and two for each channel. There is a ton of info online about how to wire pots in order to achieve desired results. I eventually plan to rig up the right to run a front/rear fade. This probably won't help you much but here is a picture. Quote Selected
