    Re: AUX input?

    I am in the same boat.

    I have an 08 A4 with everything. I just got a 3g iphone and its my first apple device and Id probably use the ipod portion of it mostly in my car. No Aux input = STUPID.

    I have the ipod adapter in my car, but its basically useless. Obviously because it wont show song titles, but also because the fvckin glove box doesnt close with the iphone hooked up.

    Re: AUX input?

    damn that sucks.. yeah apparently its easy to plug into the aux jack in the back of the cd player (if you know how to get the cd player out) .

    i might just ask best buy to do it for me or something.. but what i really need to know is the vag-com code to turn on the AUX

    I really like the idea of that link posted, but it is kinda expensive.

    That dock looks really nice, plus it charges the phone as well.

    Why Audi didnt give us an AUX jack is a mystery to me.

    the AUX would be pointless... I had it in my BMW and my ipod died every 2 days and the sound wasn't very great..... so i ripped out the aux and put in an ipod adapter and worked great!

    Re: AUX input?

    iv used aux before. i thought the sound quality was just as good as a cd.

    on top of that, i want to use it for my iphone, not an ipod. since im using the aux for my phone im not worried about it dying every few days since i take my phone in everyday and charge it

    Re: AUX input?

    So if I get the Dice kit, will I be able to control everything from my device, just as if it were in an AUX hookup? Will it also charge the device?

    Also who the heck can I get to install it?
