Well I decided to pick up an FM Modulator for the Tiida so I could get my Palm Pro to play MP3's through the factory stezza. Unfortunately in our SL model (over here) the stereo is as basic as can be, single CD, no MP3....ghey.
So I picked up the Modulator from work yesterday and set right to pulling the dash out....how wikkidly easy to get the stereo out and sooo much room to play with! I was very happy!
Anyway, my joy turned to pain as I pulled the factory unit out and saw the crazy antenna plug that Nissan has on the back of these things....what's wrong with a good old standard plug for goodness sakes?
A quick look on the net found squat all, a search on eBay found a simple adaptor that I could solder up myself so out came the soldering iron etc etc and to wrap up an already tedious story....it worked.
So I can now run my PDA and GPS through the stereo quite happily, which is nice. Anyone else tried an aftermarket install and come across the same issue with the Antenna?
