[s-cars] New urS Cabin Accessory?

[Thomas Green]

I'm all for the stock solution for this bose/ipod thing.  See
<http://www.powermax.com/cgi-global/generate.cgi?p=A-DRB-5403-SFMX> or
thereabouts for one rf patch. Or <www.smalldog.com/product/41611> for a
direct cassette input patch.  It's included with an old style refurb ipod.
Theis headphone jack to cassette patch is the Coby ipod/mp3 Audio Car
Adapter model E/COBCA 747.
Also see the <www.smalldog.com> listing of mp3 players and cool accessories
probably some alcantara cases in there. Ask teenagers to write the BTDT on
this cause they done it already.
(no connection, just a MAC and Audi nut-not an ipod nut)

>> (generically speaking and apologies to all list Jim's out there,) I'm talking

>> Check out this video:

>> 2,000 songs, 4 inches high x 2.4 w x  3/4" deep.   Lists all your songs.
>> Scroll with your thumb and bring up songs by title, artist or playlist.  ee
>> zzz!
>> This could be a Hapersize (tm) music system.  How bout this?

>> What's needed to do this?
>> 1.)  Windows version due out in 4 weeks. Unless yu're Mac already.
>> 2.)  How to neatly tap into the cars power supply.
>> 3.)  FM transmitter I believe part of the $50 Dr Bott pkg.   OR
>> 4.)  Hard wire into the bose would be real nice, but is it possible?
>> 5.)  Home Depot solution for making the storage box and the balls to cut out
>> the two plastic pillars between the sluggs.
>> 6.)  A lightly spring loaded take up reel to tension the wires when the unit

>> And yes I know mp3 sucks, and bose sucks say many, but to my sucky ears they

>> Forget GP's.  Apple dont discount for nobody:(
>> Whattya think?
>> Bill m  - I'll write the BTDT if someone can tell answer no.'s 2 and 4 above.

>> BTW -I know you geezers out there are sayin whaaa?  huhhh?  But as my college

>> Oh yeah and downside is you gal's gonna want one too.
