WTB IPOD WIRE for my 04 RX8
 

as title says i have a classic ipod and i want to connect it to my radio, does anybody have this wire used that would fit my factory radio? thanks

I have your wire...
 

I bought the AudioLink iPod cable for my factory radio from Revolution Performance and then upgraded it instead. Nonetheless, I can sell it to you for say $90 even...that includes shipping (site sells for $124 + shipping.)

Let me know.

James.

Or you could get one on ebay for 90 bucks.

Juansito...Dude...is there a reason you are such a hater???

he was picked on as a child.

Lol actually Juansito was pretty damn encouraging/nice to me on a different thread...i guess he was just being sarcastic.....? :)

I think i was the one doing the picking in school lol

Just stating some options, I don't like buying stuff like this (mine just broke) from others on the forum but thats just me.

On ebay you can get a guarantee. Just a thought -- but maybe you can lower your price?

85 shipped got audiolink, going carputer within few weeks ....

daaamn, seriously i was expecting a lot cheaper prices here on the forum, yes i saw this wires on ebay but i trust more people on the forum than egay, you never know what you get, bump for a cheaper price guys...come on...

hey man i wish i could go cheaper but i bought this unit not that long ago for 130 plus shipping @ rpmstore. loosing money as we speak on it. i got no use for it since i am going to do a carputer.

i have one!!....$70 shipped, like new (only used like 1 week), send me a PM if you are interested and if you want pics also send me your e-mail, thanks!!

i could use one for 04 as well,
which one actually uses the LCD display and is steering wheel control compatible?

My friend has one i'm checking on price.............

Before you get to carried away with prices make sure they will work with your radio most of them you need firmware ver 9.55 or higher. I have a 9.50 6 disc bose with the "hack" if you are interested pm me

Audiolink
 

I have an Audiolink I just took out from my 8, it requires the 9.55 Firmware though. PM if you're interested.

YUp... i was about to say...

What is the best option for those of us with 04 radios? Anything available without having to swap out the radio or have to send it in for firmware upgrades?

i need one of these as well, how do you find out what firmware u have?

NOTE: The factory headunit's firmware revision must be 9.55 or greater. The unit will not work on earlier firmware revisions or with 9.81 or 10.01. To find out which revision your Mazda RX-8 has, make sure the radio (FM) is turned on, then press and hold "TEXT." Then, also press and hold "1" at the same time for a few more seconds. The LCD should then report your firmware version.

NOTE: The AudioLink unit is not compatible with the integrated Sirius satellite radio module. Both this unit and the factory satellite radio module connect to the headunit using the same port, so only one or the other may be used at any given time. If you have the satellite radio, but do not use it, you are able to switch to the AudioLink with no problems.
