Did the aux input cable this morning, wasn't bad at all. I opted to go with the sunglass case install. My player fits perfectly inside there with the extra cable so I can keep it closed when I'm not in the car. Also put the steering wheel emblem on since the horn was not powered.

Thanks. I forgot to mention my drill broke while I was making the hole in the sunglass holder. I had to bore it out by hand with the drill bit & a pair of pliers - not fun. The sound is amazing, the mp3 player on the dingoo has all kinds of audio settings that can be changed and a fully customizable equalizer. It was very low volume at first, so I changed the aux level to 5.

I think he has regular Wheelskin....maybe not.

I got the euro-perf wheelskin....just as a comparison....

How well they come out is dependant on how much time you're willing to spend.

Mine was on there when I bought it. It's pretty comfortable.

Very nice. Where did you pick up you aux jack? ECS?

Funny cause these are two things I have been wanting to do and just never think about it until I get into the car.

Nice job! I like the stealth of the player in the eyeglass holder.

This was one of my first mods I did. Totally easy to do. Just a little nerve wracking when you're working on a car with 100 miles on the odometer. I used to keep my iPod in the cupholder, but I recently bought a universal bracket mount from Crutchfield. Pro-Fit BM 50-99. It's nice because it fits under the trim just to the right of the navigation unit. With this bracket, I can keep my iPod charged too and it's easier to jump to the next song or pause (I never try to mess with playlists while I'm driving).

The only thing I wish I had was a Line Out vs. the headphone jack, only to cut down on the noise a little. Oh well.

I love it's clean look when you clean up of course...LOL. One thing that I need is to ground the signal which the directions are somewhere on E46fanatics because when I'm charging my iPhone, randomly Aux will cut out and cease to exist unless I unplug power to the iPhone.
