Skoda Ipod Adapter

Featured Replies

Right, thought i would post this as i'm sure there are alot more of you out there wondering this:

Fitted a Dension ICE Link Plus Ipod Connector last week and have been using it for the last week. I works great and is simple to fit.

I will post pics soon, but here is a link for anyone interested (its expensive -

cool, so whats the sound like? I've got a transpod which uses FM and it sounds ok, but not as good as CD's... Plus anyone trying to listen to 88.0 FM hears my music! lol!

sounds perfectly crisp just like CD.... helps having the Skoda DX as HU rather than standard stock HU improves sound no end even with normal speakers.

skoda DX? IS that an upgrade?

wow that looks pukker! although one thing I probably wouldn't have mounted it there, as it will A) get very cold with air con on and B) very warm in with the heating on... I think I would have mounted it towards the blanking plate (where the cup holder would go) on the passenger side...

Does the ipod get all its power from the headunit or do u need a seperate 12v supply?

All power from HU, it litterally replaces the CD Changer (unless ur clever with some wire and solder and wire up both :D thats what ive done!)

Looks good! I have the ICE>Link too and will be trasferring it (and my HU) to my new Octy when that arrives...one day.

I use a Brodit ProClip to hold my iPod, and my idea was also to fit it up by the central air vents. I use the iPod GUI, rather than the HU, to control the iPod, and having it up there makes it a lot easier to see and navigate.

One question for you: where did you pass the ICE>Link cable to get it to the back of the HU? I can see it sort of tucked up behind the cradle, but where does it go from there?

Cable i've squeezed in-between the blanking switches and the dash it then runs down the glovebox loose then in the top right corner of the passenger footwell (close to bottom of glovebox) is a gap (nr footwell vent - stick fan on helps you find it) the just feed the cable through and you should see it pop up behind your HU.

I only done this so i could feed it in with sat-cables...... if your running normal HU and you still have a lot of blanking switches by rear window heater... just stick it through there and leave the chip on the little dash behind them.

Ah, thanks for that clarification, I can see it now :thumbup:
