iPod adapter for 2006 LC100 sahara DVD system

G'day, yours must be a different unit than mine......................

One of our sons got one of those units and it has one big problem. You cannot listen to any entertainment if the mapping (OziCE) is displayed. Multi tasking is totally RS. Not even the local FM radio or a CD. To say he is cheesed off when he saw ours playing the music from the Walkman is an understatement. We got the VMS several years back. Very costly - YES.

It may be worth buying it from a shop where you can sit and talk and sort out problems and warranties etc.

John,
one of the units on ebay (from elinz) has a built-in DV-B TV tuner. Does yours have this, and if so, does it work well and do you consider it a good feature?

Reread your post

Do you have the original radio /CD in the car as mine doesnt play DVD's.

Thanks Scott, I was hoping that was possible!
I'm happy with the unit in every other respect, so being able to play from an iPod will make all the difference in the world.
Appreciate your help!

this unit not compatible with satnav units like mine - doh!

Hi, I purchased a simple cable from either DSE or JB for about $12.00,plugs into Aux socket in radio and earphone socket in Ipod, doesn't charge but for most applications is more than sufficient,

thanks woodie - I do that in my crummydore, but the Sahara system doesn't have any aux socket.

Well mine is a 2005 and hasnt got the Aux input so had to use the FM way.

Not much good playing movies as it hasnt got a screen LOL

Would like to know how to do that as a DVD is completely different to a CD in the way it is written.

Data is Ok but a movie is a different format.

Cheers

Where do I find out about the DVD upgrade for factory Sat Nav as have a Camry Grande I would like to do
Thanks Graham

Most older cars don't have aux sockets. Otherwise it would be easy.

Hi Matt,
Wrote to this mob. Unfortunately their kit is not compatible with the SatNav stereo in the Sahara.

Interesting. Mine is an '08 Prado Grande, so will make sure it is compatible before I commit the cash. Appreciate the heads up.

Matt.

Ok, found one that doesn't cost the earth, and they confirm its compatible with the SatNav stereo in the Sahara.
