Default Re: Use of steering wheel controls for iPod

Well, I got the DICE device today and installed it with NO PROBLEMS!!.
It is very configurable with two banks of DIP switches. I could have had it look like a SAT, MP3, or a 6 disk changer. I chose the 6 CDC mode because I have XM.
The text displays just as it were a real CD. When you go into motion, the text blanks out. (I can over ride that with the NAV DVD I made)

I didn't try it but I wonder if the SAT mode would display the text all the time. My XM radio text is always displayed. Just a thought.

One thing VERY nice about this device is that you can still operate your iPod. Every other device I've seen disables the iPod operation..

Thanks to everyone who had posted pictures of the disassambly of the dash. This helped a great deal! The dash came apart and went back together great. You can't tell that I was every in there.
