See I get what your saying Dirty dog but with minor electrical skills, soldering skills, you can create an AUX cable for under 20 to 30 bucks... Why pay like 70 to 80 bucks of plastic garbage when you can DIY... Cause if im gonig to spend that I'd rather save money and get a head unit... which I will be getting I just want something temporary... Thanks alot everybody... if I cant get the TERK... Im going to create my own and create a DIY for people

I just don't get why those canbus adapters are so freakin expensive? Especially since it can be done without buying one. i could see if it was an absolute must have and they wanted to rip you off, but it can be done without spending crazy money. I'm sure it can be bought for around $100 on egay?

Yeah no kidding....lol
So many hook-ups I left half of them off.
I never hooked up the parking brake wire(grounded it) swapped the mute wire over 3 and up 1 and grounded that so I could use Navi while driving. Left off the reverse wire(useless) and I left off the speed wire.(works prefectly fine w/out it)
espinosafell I was just showing you a link where it was cheaper than the $199 retail which was the link Weed showed ya. Then i checked and found one for $30. That is well worth the money for all the hassle you would go through re-wiring stuff up.

You mean Programer? Anything called a chip is a waste of $$$$. Gotta get a handheld programmer. i think Superchips is better for the 04's but I would use the search function for that answer as there is a lot of info on either SC or Diablo.
