What kind of car is it for? Do you need the cd changer port on the adapter?

They work. (If you buy the right one, of course).

How's San Diego these days? (Left 8 years ago--kind of miss it).

actually I received this email about the bliztsafe tech department so maybe you should wait.



"Technically, yes it will work. However, on the latest release of the HON/SNY ITI V.2 (Blitzsafe was out of stock on this item for about 2 months, but are now shipping again), we have been getting feedback from '04 TSX owners who bought the device saying the device don't work. Blitzsafe has acknowledged there is a bug in the compatibility of this device with the '04 TSX and are working to resolve the issue. As of this writing, they have not release a TSX-compatible device yet. We are hopeful that a remedy will be available within the next couple of weeks.

Thank you,

The bug is that the bus cable will not allow the Blitzsafe adapter to shut off when another source is selected. You can still buy the correct device, but you have to add a simple ON/OFF switch to the yellow wire on the bus cable. That's what I did and it worked.

Avoid autotoys.com at all costs. Their shipping times are ridiculous. I had to get my money back because the website showed the product I was buying as "Processing" for 1.5 months. I was fed up. Also, I don't think they have a phone number you can call to actually "talk" with someone.

Blitzsafe from auto toys will work with modification!!

I was so happy to find out that the blitzsafe aux input for my 04 tsx with navi would actually work with alittle modification. Since I read this in another thread and I found it extremely helpfull, I decided to post it as much as I could so the people that have the same problem will be able to find it easier.

If you have Nav and the Blitzsafe adapter and it is not letting you choose CDC when pressing the cd button twice you have to do as follows:

-you must switch the yellow and black wire on the blitsafe plug that you will be plugging into the cars radio. You can accomplish this by taking a pin and carfully switching the prongs with one another. I found it very easy to do this if you take a safety pin and opened the rear part of the male harness first. Then slide the saftey pin under the wire itself wich releases a clip holding the wire in place. After that the wire can be pulled out easily. Repeat the step for the other wire and then make sure they are both secure. Close the back side of the harness and you are set.

Now when you press the cd button twice the display will read cdc and you can listen to what ever device you added with RCAs. The only problem every one has noticed about the blitzsafe aux input is that it will not let you use the audio button anymore. This is a commom problem and I did some research into how to solve it and found a solution . The blitsafe adapter does not shut off when you select another source and this leads to the lose of functionality of some buttons on the radio. In order to fix this, you can simply put a switch on the yellow wire which comes from the male harness you plug into the radio. When you want to shut the cdc off you will have to choose another source from the radio and then flip the switch to shut the unit off which allows you to use the audio button once again. Hope this was helpfull!! Thanks all!
