How to Hook up my Ipod (don't worry I searched threads)
 
I have a 2004 Lariat 4x4, audiophile 6cd. There's no input or tape deck (i wish there was). I do not want an FM tranmitter. What can I do? I was searching other threads and they said something about a PIE, but i have no clue what that is. I have had the truck a week and i'm going nuts just listening to the commercials on the radio. All help/replies are greatly appreciated!!

I have the same situation in my truck. I really don't want to change the head unit.

This is the P.I.E. they are referring to.

I may have to go with that P.I.E. Although it's $90, that would be the cost of a "good" FM tuner. Does anyone have one that bought it from this site?

I haven't purchased one yet. I am still debating getting a new head unit in a few months. There is a member selling one in the classifieds for $75. Not sure if it has been sold yet or not.

Welcome :wave:

Do a little more searching, there's lots of threads on this that should answer all of your questions. Good luck :thumbsup:

PIE Connection
 
The PIE connection would be better than an FM transmitter. With the FM transmitter you can have interference from other radio stations. The PIE is a direct connect and you will get the best sound that way.
