Do you have more info on it?

 

sorry i dont but you can try emailing them or look at it on their site

i like the way it looks just not in that spot

 

I think thats a great idea! I love where it's at!

 

I sent them a request for more info and here is their reply:

"The complete spec.dock integration package for your 996 interfaces directly with your MOST fiber optic radio via the CD changer connection port. The only stipulation is that your OEM unit has to be the screen-based (nav or non-nav) radio. It is necessary to leave the CD changer disconnected in order for the iPod to interface with the radio, but no FM modulation is used at all. This is a direct connection to the MOST bus and also offers an additional auxiliary input for satellite or other audio options. The iPod is controlled by the factory radio and steering wheel controls, audio is passed and the iPod charges while docked. The spec.dock 996 v2i package comes complete with the dock, interface, one Apple Universal Dock Insert of your choice, installation instructions and domestic ground shipping included. The price of this package is $899 ($799 of which is the recently released MOST fiber optic iPod interface). Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to place an order. The MOST interfaces are in very short supply , so we will have to check our supplier's availability before giving an exact ship date."

This was specific for a 2004 turbo cab with navi and CD changer. They can be reached at 2point5.com

$899 seems too high a price point for me - I can burn some custom CDs and load up the changer for a LOT less

 

For $899 you can buy a sweet replacement headunit that has Ipod itegration built-in
