New CD HU W/Sirius & Ipod Installed..Pix inside

No modification to the plastic kit if i remember correctly (i did the install also) You just have to bend the metal ears back that hold the factory radio in and drill two holes!

thats awesome! i was afraid to put in a radio in my 69 because i didnt want to butcher up a perfectly good dash, i was gonna do the glove box delete stated in this forum but now ill have to consider this, how much does the volvo kit run?

[theskytoucher]

i think it was $20 at best buy!!!

[bigjake34452]

that is a steal for something so cool, hmm that would look awesome with the white guages and blue leds.

I was considering the 'radio delete' cover and install hidden amp
and speakers with ipod connection only. It would be sweet
with hidden fm reciever and ipod with fm transmitter. No wires!
There is a ipod battery/transmitter that I want to look into
called Powerfm by Duracell. Maybe just a switch on the dash
to turn on the fm tuner and amp and you could just control the
volume with the ipod. What do you think?

Your setup looks very nice btw.

is ther a model number or something

It says it works with the 2nd generation nano but I only see
pictures of it with the 1st generation. Maybe the new version
has already come out: http://www.batteryfuel.com/drpwfmn2-app ... -gen2.html

" Duracell PowerFM Case, Battery, FM Transmitter for iPod Nano (2nd Generation) - FM Transmitter, Extended Battery and Silicone Case (DRPWFMN2)"



Did you know that when I drove home from san bernardino ca to san antonio tx I played my ipod continuously for just over 24 hours straight without recharging it? The battery really does last a long time. I don't know how the fm transmitter will effect it but the duracell powerfm is
also a battery pack which is good.

The only difference between the Volvo and the Bumpside installation is it gets installed upside down in a bumpside.

Installed my new Pioneer HU this weekend and thought some of you guys may like to see some pix.. I may be adding blue led's to the dash and ac controls to match the HU.

can you add a nite pic when you get all the leds installed so we can see its effects??
