im trying to install a icelink, i need to disconnect the battery first tho. i know im retarded, but how do i do it? theres a crazy bolt on the negative wire.

 

12mm socket should do the trick

 

ok so i took off the negative wire, and then went through with the icelink install. now, i just tried to put the negative back on and it started to zap and make crackling noises. is this normal or did i really mess something up..

 

Itz normal.

 

k cool. awesome, my ice-link works.

 

Nice man. Finishing an install is always a great feeling

 

pics?

 

whats the icelink? an alarm?

 

ipod connection

 

hmmmm, i dont think i ever undid the battery to plug in the icelink and ive installed two or three already...

 

ill put pics up as soon as i get my panavise mount installed. until then, if anyone wants to know, all i did was take out the cubby drawer thing, install the splitter and icelink, and then routed the actual cradle mount through the opening underneath the passenger side footwell. theres a really convenient hole - this way when i get my panavise mount, i only have to attach the cradle.

question tho, for anyone who has done icelinks, my icelink chip device (the little rectangular heat-shrink wrapped thing) gets hot. people on these forums said it can get up to 105 degrees farenheit. is this too hot to have it just sitting behind the cubby, next to all the wires of the navi/radio?

 

Can someone explain the difference between the SNHOND3 adapter and the Icelink. I know they are both for connecting an ipod, but are they both neccesary or is one only one needed to make the connection. If only one is needed, is it just a matter a preference to which one you get?

 

I just install my icelink too. Didnt' dissconnect the battery though. Works for fine for me =)

 

Ding ding ding. We have a winner.

Side note: There are no stupid questions. Just stupid people.

 

Hahaha thanks... :P
