Hard-Wired iPod Installation Guide:
The following demonstrates how the iPod and dock are installed using the AAI-NIS from Pacific Accessory Corporation. I purchased mine from 5K International. The plate was laser-cut for me by my friend, Hideki Okuda.
PART 1: Parts & Supplies
PART 2: Preparing the Dock
PART 3: Installation
NOTE: Since this install uses the laser-cut plate, I have not provided any instructions. If you are looking for how to fabricate one out of everyday materials, see the Plate page from my Original FM Transmitter Installation Guide.
