How to Make a Custom Factory Look Ipod Dock for Your Car Stereo

If you're like most people, you probably have an Apple iPod. But the problem is that you're tired of having those poop-quality cassette adapters, FM modulators, and auxiliary input cables. You can create a dock that looks like it came from the factory for not a lot of cash.

Select a good, unused location for your dock to go. A good place would be right in front of the cup holders, where the ashtray is.

Take the ashtray insert our and with a sharp knife, cut around where the plastic part is.

Remove the car stereo.

Run the wires to the input on the car stereo. If you have an older (2004-Older) vehicle with no CD changer, use the CD changer input. If you have a newer car (2005-Newer) with an iPod adapter input, use the iPod adapter input.

Put the car stereo back in the dash and reconnect any disconnected wiring from before.

Put the iPod dock in place and secure it with either 4 screws or super glue.

Plug in your iPod into the dock and start jamming! :)

Tips
