Stereo/DVD: - Auxillary options for XC90 2005

Tonksy · Jan 11th, 2010, 12:18

Had my beautiful beast XC90 for a couple of months now, and now I've now come to terms with the cost of running it I'm loving it to bits ...

Anyway, as the car is a 2005 I do not have an auxillary input for an I-pod etc. Just wondering if anybody can offer some advice, can I have one fitted or is there a cheaper and more cheerful solution?

Thanks

I install the PARROT MKI9000 KIT which offer the IPOD, auxiliary and jack connection.

Bajou,
So you installed this in your XC90 did you?

bajou · Jan 15th, 2010, 17:15

Yes, i did it

Err - just checked compatibility - not for XC90s with the Premium Sound package - like mine.

Bajou, was this easy to fit? I am thinking of getting this or the 9100. Also, what is the sound quality like?
Cheers

Thanks so much for the advice ... so do I'm guessing the only option is the Parrot MKi9000? I don't think I have the premium sound system so maybe it will work. Interested to know what the quality is like Bajou?
Thanks again
**UPDATED .... I've just realised that as I my stereo isn't bluetooth so the MKi9000 probably won't connect afterall. Am I being dumb or is that right?
Help!?

It's easy to fit if you know what you are doing. The sound quality is very good
