    Installing Neo iOn SP

    I installed the Neo iOn yesterday, but no sound came out of my speakers. I hit CD twice, which took my to the cd changer (Neo iOn), but no matter how loud I put it, no music came out (the radio and cd player worked fine). Any suggestions? Thanks! Leo

    Neo iOn or PIE

    Thanks for the info! :D So both options do not interfere with the oem stereo? I thought I heard that with one of them, you have to turn off and then on your car to get the CD player to work again. - Leo

    Neo iOn or PIE

    I guess the PIE would not allow any control whatsoever using the radio/steering wheel since the AUX input is just to get the audio from the ipod (all controls, including volume control, come from using the iPod, right?). The nice thing about the PIE though is you can use any other device as...

    Neo iOn or PIE

    Hi, What do you think of the following setup: - iPod Nano - PIE MAZ/PC-ALP - PIE ALP/M-3.5M - Ten FlexDock This setup will set me back $140. I was thinking of the Neo iOn, but that's $220. I want to be able to control my music selection via my iPod primarily. Volume and next/previous...

    Installing Neo iOn SP

    Click on the image below to see the port I found on my 2001 Mazda Protege ES 2.0 OEM Stereo. It's a 16-pin port and I noticed my stereo has "Disc +" and "Disc -" buttons on the front, so it seems it has cd-changer capabilities. I was also checking out PIE's MAZ/PC-ALP adapter and I'm...

    iPod and Neo iOn SP installation

    I checked out the PIE adapter, but it seems like just an aux adapter for the protege. When I called he said there was nothing like a neo ion for the mazda proteges/3's. In other words, if you go with PIE, you need to get a cable to connect from the ipod to the aux port in the PIE adapter, then...

    Installing Neo iOn SP

    I also have a Mazda 3 (2005) and I don't see a cd changer control, but it seems people are connecting it to that some how. I wish stock stereos were a bit more standard lol :) With connections atleast. I wonder what's my best option for connecting my iPod directly to my stereo. Any...

    Installing Neo iOn SP

    Hi, I have a 2001 Mazda Protege ES 2.0 with the stock stereo unit. I have an iPod and I want to install the Neo iOn SP (http://www.carplayer.com/) so that I can play my itunes in my car. The iOn hooks to the cd changer port in car stereos and you access it by pressing the cd changer button in...
