Honda Car Forum

I have a '98 honda civic with the stock stereo receiver. There is no
tape deck and there is no CD deck, but there is a tape/cd button on the
deck. I wanted to be able to connect my iPod through a line-in or
something and I was thinking that I might be able to do it through the
CD-changer controls or tape/cd control somehow. If anyone knows of a
way to do this, please let me know.

Thanks

I added a simple audio adapter to my Honda. The widget plugs into the 14
pin port used for an external CD changer. Now "CD Changer Disc 1, track
1" is an external mp3 player. PIE HON98-AUX Auxiliary Input Converter
<http://www.logjamelectronics.com/piehon98aux.html> $49.95

This has RCA inputs. I added an RCA-mini cable for $1.50.

PIE makes adapters that plug right into the CD changer port and come out
to simple RCA jacks that you can plug your iPod or anything else into.
All your radio knows is that "there's a CD changer out there".
