Question Electronics Package

It's the Shaker 500 system with the nav system.
The cd player which normally would hold 6 cd's, this system does not, this system it will hold only one cd. The only way to play more then one cd is to use Juke Box... right???

I have this system in my car also. You rip CD's into the Juke Box and they are stored on your cars internal hard drive. As far as I know it's only a single CD player

There are tons of options for listening to music with the electronics package:
1. Single CD (1 album)
2. Single MP3 CD (about 6 albums)
3. Single MP3 DVD (about 20 albums)
4. Jukebox (about 40 albums)
5. USB MP3 player, like iPod or Zen (up to 200 albums)
6. USB Flash hard drive, like a 350GB Passport (up to 500 albums)

Throw in Sirius and the options are endless.....

Of course, nothing sounds as good as the roar from the twin pipes at full throttle!

You are right about the twin pipes, it's my favorite tune.
Question, iPod music is now MPEG-4. what do I use to convert them to MP 3's? I use a mac system.

iTunes can do this for you.

First set your import settings from AAC to MP3.
With this setting complete highlight the track that you want to convert to MP3.
Using the Advanced Menu select "Create MP3 Version"

Should be the trick

Given that iTunes is now DRM free you can do this on purchased tracks so long as they are not protected. To verify if the song is DRM free right click on the song and choose "get info" If the file is "Protected" then you either need to upgrade it or burn it to CD to remove the DRM. If the file is "Purchased" then it can easily be converted to MP3 using the method above.

Best of luck!
