Sam in your opinion, is it really a 3 hour install!!!

also are there alternative locations to have the ipod mentioned in the installation details?
G'day Ian,

Congratulations on getting the "gig" as moderator; with your knowledgeable but unassuming style, you're sure to be well received.

After having seen the renowned Steve Krabbbenborg remove the COMAND head unit and lay bare the centre console area on my car within a few minutes, I'd feel ripped off if the installation of the iPod kit took more than half an hour!

I'd expect that it could be fitted in any location, within reach of the supplied harness, or further with modification. The location in the diagram is fine with me; at least it's in a lockable location, and will "work" for our USA friends with the CD changer in the glove box.

Cheers

Yes, but I have the CD changer in the glovebox so if the location showed in the picture is the center console box that is bad news for me because that is where I currently store a lot of stuff I cannot get in the glovebox. [V] Thought the rear dropdown glovebox was an excellent spot since I don't use that for anything.
