ipod in my 95'?

ok, Santa brought me a new ipod video for Christmas. so, the questions is:

can an Ipod be integraded with the stock Becker Stereo and changer?

i would rather not have to replace with a new aftermarked receiver, or get all down and dirty and remove my engine and transmission (yes, an exageration)just to make it work. but at the same time i dont want it to look cheap, half a$$ or Gheto!

if worse comes to worse, i could use one of these, but would rather NOT...



any hints, ideas, links, or help, etc?

They sell a kit that needs to be plugged into the antenna.So you turn you dial to 88.3 and jam away I think its called an Rf modular

See sig
can't speak to the quality of the cassette adapter kit, but I CAN say if you go for an RF modulator, DON'T get the wireless one: it sucks regardless of who makes it.

I bit the bullet and bought a new Kenwood head unit and iPod adapter for my 16v. The OEM radio was acting up and needed to be replaced anyways.

becker makes a thingamajig that connects to all their stereos.

you have to remove your stereo and send it to them though.

although, depending on your location, you might be able to find a becker authorised repair shop that can do it for you.

just google becker ipod control an dyou should get a bunch of hits
