Looking for a quote and ideas - EL

[Polyal]

Not sure if you do this kind of work, but its in your field so I thought I would ask.

I own an EL Ghia, and it has a great factory system, I will get around to upgrading the speakers and sub one day, but it will do for now.

The only thing I wish it had is a AUX input. Now, I thought the only way I am going to get an ipod or similar to work was with a FM module. But someone posted this thread up the other day and its something that I really want now.

If you cant see that tut I can upload it in a *.doc

So there is a tutorial, step by step on how to wire an AUX in.

The difference is, instead of having the input in the dash, I would like to wire it up so I can have the ipod in the center console, out of the way. Also means no holes in the dash which would be good.

Would you be able to do this? And how much roughly would it cost?

Secondly, it would be even better if there was a way to charge the ipod in the center arm rest aswell, now I have no idea how you could do that, maybe install a cigarette lighter connection in there.

Your thoughts and advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks

That sounds like a difficult, time consuming and expensive(if done by someone else) way of obtaining a AUX input. I would suggest one of our FM modulators. The difference is that this plugs directly into your antenna input(does not send a wireless signal like other modulators) so the chance of external interference is reduced dramatically. The input can be placed anywhere.

As for charging your ipod elsewhere this could be done almost anywhere you wanted.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Hmmm. That unit sounds interesting. Any links or prices?

The interference and general crappiness of current FM modulators is something I wanted to avoid; but if yours is just as good as an AUX input then Im all ears.

Yeah he did, but I am not going to jump at the first offer, and I want to see what else is possible.
