[Pup Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close Pup]

Hello All,
I have a 2008 Prado Grande and was wondering what accessory I have to buy to connect my Ipod in the Aux connection in the glovebox, and what else has anyone else ran out of that connection.

Cheers Pup.

I take it that this aux connection outlet is only available on the Grande and not GXL?

The AUX input on the GXL is on the front of the radio (3.5m stereo plug)

I used this for a while but then went for a Vaio unit that plugs in the rear of the radio - beauty is that you get the song name on the screen and full control from the unit (with the ipod tucked neatly in the glovebox! - no wires hanging!)

Can you please supply more details about the above product.

Yeah... thanks. I knew of this one as I use it all the time with the ipod. But was wondering where the other one (in the glovebox) was?

Re: Aux connections

Yep - I meant the Vais product (the website above) and I used the other topic for more info - so its a good place to start!

NtPryce - I had a good look in my glovebox again (and when I had it apart for the Vais install) and as far as I could see there is no AUX input around the glovebox for a GXL.
