GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

Just got the adapter installed...works great, easy install (thanks to my hubby) for those who don't want to replace the HU. Just for clarification I have an 04 with the single disc & M&T.Thanks to all who posted info and how to's on this product. Couldn't (wouldn't) have done it without you. Here's the link for the adapter.. http://www.discountcarstereo.c...D=749Product ID: PXDX Product Name: Peripherals AUX2Car Auxiliary Input Adapter with Free Cable. Price: $75.98 Select Cable - PXHGM3 Vehicle Year/Make/Model - Vehicle Year/Make/Model 04 Pontiac Vibe Best price you'll probably find, $84.46 with the shipping... ordered on Tuesday evening...arrived in the mail Friday.Now, if my new Rio Carbon worked...but that's another story

i will order this too... today... kind of worried, since i got the 6 cd in dash...

I think the jury is still out on whether this will work with the in dash changer.Just to be sure, I would wait till Monday to call and ask unless you can get a definitive answer from someone here. just my opinion

I want to know too! I called and they said it would work fine with the indash changer on the 2005 vibe. You just hook it up to the 12 pin in the back.But I am waiting for confirmation before I buy it too.

Do you have XM, Onstar on your '05? It's possible that you might have to disconnect and/or lose functionality of one or both.Just a warning..this is uncharted territory, so please let us know how it works out with the 6-disc!

And if so, I really want to talk to you!)That's a definitive answer. I've tried it.

Where is the power wire hooked up on your aux2car adapter?

to the blue wire w/ white stripe in the radio harness...I'm glad we got the in dash 6 CD problem answered...sorry guys

Did your adapter harness have just one yellow power wire or was there a ground wire coming out of the harness as well?

Mine had just the yellow power wire. It grounds through the radio 12-pin

so this will not do anything for me since i got the 6 cd in dash, no band button and also no xm/nav...

Where did you connect your power wire? No ground loop and alternator whine for you?

Sounds like she tapped into the blue wire with a white strip, constant 12 volts to the radio. Thats the same place I tapped into, no whine or noise of any sort. I do wonder, if anyone may be able to answer, instead of tapping into constant 12 volts, why not tap into switched 12 volts? I wonder if it would do away with the white noise I get after I shut everything off?

Depends on what the adapter needs. If there're any settings it has to store or anything, having the constant power switch on and off might cause problems down the line. I doubt it would have anything to do with the 'white noise'.. Especially if the radio is off. But..who knows for sure..

Yup, that's where it is, haven't heard any noises...The little I have used it anyway. I bought to use with an mp3 player, got a 5 gig Rio Carbon...it had issues had to take it back.I have a Zen Micro on order from Circuit City, should be here by the end of the week, can't wait
