Default Inculding hotel and food??

must have stayed at some seedy places and ate at McDonalds the entire trip.

A meal for 2 at Mortons costs me as much as your entire trip.

Default Ted, what makes it better than the OEM adapter?

I'm considering the OEM adapter myself, but i'd probably fry myself and the car messing with anything back there. I've got XM and wouldn't want to lose it either.

Default Re: OEM iPod Adapter

I have been looking at the iPod OEM Adapter. Did you like using it? Are you still thinking of getting rid of it? I would be interested in taking it off your hands.
