Thread: Ipod Connection to a Eurovox 5880R Unit

Rosieposie,

I had a win with my Eurovox radio cassette player so decided to contributed to this threat here http://www.aulro.com/afvb/communicat...ml#post1321476

Not sure if it helps but I suspect it will. Go Technologies (they do Eurovox stuff) will post you a cable with a standard 3.5mm audio socket (I call it a headphone socket...). I suggest you call them to check if they can help with your model.

Since then I have added new speakers approx $400 (maybe I did that first??), a Parrot CK3000 bluetooth hands free kit $180 and a $25 cable that plugs into my iPhone4 socket then splits into two to plug into the Go Tech cable and my cigarette lighter. I now have my iPhone 4 blasting tunes through to my factory stereo whilst charging from my cigarette lighter. I'm living the handsfree phoning dream too!!!

I plan to hard wire the charger (additional cig lighter) into the 12v behind the dash/console and hide the wires. It'll look perfect I reckon. I'll get that done once I recover from my engine rebuild, alternator overhaul, ignition switch rebuild, battery replacement and $660 service......!!

I wonder if I'll make it to Canberra next week. Gotta love the Land Rover ride..... At least I'll be able to call for help if I don't!

Milney

Is that the stock radio? Either way, you need to get behind it and look for a line-in connection. Once you know what the port is/looks like, you need to get a cable with that on one end and a 3.5mm connector on the other which will plug into your ipod. I put mine in about a week ago. They're worth the trouble and are dirt cheap if you can do it yourself, mine was $12 off ebay!

Yeah, stock eurovox radio. The only "spare input" is the CD changer socket. Go Tech have adapted a 3.5 cable for same.

I phoned them and spoke to a consultant. They checked and rang me back, it appears that the 5880rd unit is the only one that you cannot modify. You can add a 10 CD stacker to the unit but nothing else.
