Anybody know exactly what the AUX button is for on the shaker stereo? I want to know if its possible to rig up something to hook my iPod to the stereo instead of using a FM transmitter. Any info on this matter?...any at all? One more thing here......how the heck are people posting their pics in the signatures?.....i'm pasting in the tags but all thats showing in the signature is the actual html code for the image but NO image...HELP![:@]

The AUX button is for a Rear Entertainment System. Pretty dumb for a sports car but I guess delco is planning on dropping these into future SUVs or something. As far a connector for the Shaker, Periphiral Integration Electronics has the only connector to the shaker that I know of. Search the audio/visual threads. There is a problem with it though and they are working on a fix now. here's their website:

Personally, I couldn't wait for a fix and just got a new stereo with an ipod connection. Pioneer and Alpine make headunits with ipod connections(adapters cost extra) I paid 350 for a new stereo and ipod connection, installed. Considering it will cost about 170 for the ipod adapter for the shaker alone, the extra money is worth it. You get a better stereo out the whole deal.

Here's what I got:
Pioneer DEH3700MP plus iPod adapter and connection to factory amp.
Sounds so much better than the shaker!! Everything is so much clearer and a whole lot louder.

I looked up the PIE unit and its actually running between $70 and $90 so its not too bad. I think i'm gonna wait for others to purchase it (that have more money to spend than I do) and read their reactions to it before i buy. Thanks for the feedback.
